Ford Galaxy runlock system
The CAN KONTROL RUNLOCK is a CAN based runlock system for the Ford Galaxy from 2015 to present. On a minibus or welfare vehicle it holds the engine running with the key out and the doors locked, so heating, a tail-lift or medical equipment stays powered while passengers wait or the cab is left secure. Handbrake, pedal and door interlocks return it to normal when it is driven. The unit is configured to the vehicle at installation.
- The unit reads ignition, road speed, handbrake, pedal and door state from the vehicle CAN bus.
- With the interlock conditions met, it holds the engine running after the key is removed.
- Opening the driver door, pressing a pedal or releasing the handbrake outside the set conditions returns the vehicle to normal and shuts the runlock state down.
- It is configured to the vehicle and application, and can be moved to another vehicle if the fleet changes.

Why fit runlock system to a Ford Galaxy
Welfare and accessible transport cannot switch off between jobs: heating, a lift and onboard equipment all need the engine, often while the driver is helping a passenger away from the cab. Runlock lets the Ford Galaxy idle with the doors locked and the keys in hand, then returns control the moment it is driven. It reads the bus, so the conversion wiring is left untouched.
A Ford Galaxy on welfare or passenger duty spends much of its day stationary but live, keeping the cabin warm and the equipment fed. Runlock makes that safe and secure: the engine holds with the key out and the doors locked, under handbrake, pedal and door interlocks, and hands straight back when the driver returns.
Workshop fit off the CAN bus, no-cut inductive option on vehicles under warranty, and free configuration updates from Intellitec, part of Scorpion Group.
Frequently asked questions

- Yes. The CAN KONTROL RUNLOCK is a CAN based runlock system configured for the Ford Galaxy (2015 to present). Tell us the vehicle and we confirm the configuration for the job.
- Will the heating stay on for passengers in a Ford Galaxy with the key removed?
- Yes. Runlock holds the engine on with the key out and the doors locked, so the cabin heating and any onboard equipment stay powered while passengers wait. It returns to normal the instant the handbrake, a pedal or the driver door shows the vehicle is being driven.
- Can the runlock system be moved to another vehicle?
- Yes. The unit is programmable and can be reconfigured and moved to another vehicle if the fleet changes. Configuration updates are free, handled by us as the manufacturer.
- Is it safe to leave the engine running with the key out?
- The runlock only holds the engine running while the handbrake is set and the interlock conditions are met. Opening the driver door, pressing a pedal or releasing the handbrake outside those conditions shuts the runlock state down.
