Default how to disable central locking

Just got a new 09 plate transit but once i take away the central locking closes all the doors. Due to my job there is alot of stopping and starting and getting stuff from the back for which i have to switch off the van.

Is there anyway to disable the auto lock feature or does it need to go back to Ford??

Any help would be great peoples!!

You need to get the dealer to switch off auto locking. It's a setting on the security system that requires the IDS to switch it on or off.
