Plips and superlocking
I recently got a new plip coded, an Xpart aftermarket for my Lucas 5AS
Interestingly it superlocks the car on a single press.
My old plip still does a standard lock but the new one always superlocks
Has anyone had this happen? Is there a way to stop it?

Xpart have come back to me saying it is part of the T4 programming.
I find this strange as I would think that wwould be a global setting i.e. plips superlock not and individual setting for each plip slot?
Anyone know for sure?

My old Mg TF used to superlock on one click and 'normal' lock with two. My Mg F locks with one and superlocks with two. But I don't know why separate keys would be different!

Interesting, I've never heard of this distinction before.gooseholla wrote: My old Mg TF used to superlock on one click and 'normal' lock with two. My Mg F locks with one and superlocks with two. But I don't know why separate keys would be different!

Just thought I would update this as still havent got to the bottom of it.
Bought another plip off ebay and it works as normal. aka one push for normal lock and two for superlock. Problem is it doesnt have the coil to auto disable the immobiliser like the xpart one.
So maybe its a 17TN model thing - the plips with the immobilizer coil do superlocking?

Plips do not have coils for immobiliser. Coil is on the ignition barrel. Only difference is with 3TXA plips, they will not work on later car alarm systems with coil for immobiliser.

just a bit to add from my knowledge..
If the car is am MGTF with a SCU controller-then combined locking ( single plip superlocking) is a programming option that can be done to the SCU ..
