Question regarding door locks

My automatic locking and unlocking door locks aren't working. I'm referring to the mechanism that locks the doors when you place the car in gear and unloks tham when you remove the key.

I've looked around the forums but all I have found is information pertaining to the "Autolock" feature. I'm not sure if the two are related in any way. Perhaps someone on this forum knows.

Is there some relay or fuse that controls this feature?

car is a 1999 i30t. TIA

There is this mechanism? If so, please let me know as mine isn't working aswell! I think mine sometimes locks the door when I close the driver's side door.

I didn't know I30's had this feature... Neither my 2001 I30t, nor my parents 2003 I35 have that feature...

Do you have an aftermarket alarm? If so, that's what is locking your doors after putting it in gear. Stock I30s (or Maximas for that matter) did not have that feature.

I have a 99' I30 T,and have most of the options,but I don't think Auto locks was an option.It might be an aftermarket item like max5spd said.

Autolock wasnt a feature. Now if you lock one of the doors they all lock.

Yeah, It kind of puzzles me as well. Last week I took a drive with a co-worker who has a 99 i30. I was very shocked when his doors locked in drive and unlocked when he turned off the motor. I also assumed it was something aftermarket as he had purchased the car second hand. However, he uses what appears to be a stock Infiniti remote to control the locks. Based on this I just assumed that it was a feature that wasn't working on my car.

It sounds like this might be some custom wiring work on the part of an alarm shop or something. I'd really like to investigate this as I think its a great idea.

You have a T? Maybe it doesn't work with manual transmissions. I have a '96 I-30t, and no such feature. I"m not sure I would want the doors to automatically unlock, anyway.

If the doors are closed and the passenger side door is locked, all doors lock. There is a master lock button on the driver's door. Other than that, it's the standard remote control locking set up.
