E-JOYLOCK is an anti-theft protection for cars equipped with an electronic gear stick, called joystick or shift-by-wire. E-JOYLOCK is a gearbox lock that prevents you from changing the gear lever position from “P” to “D”, “N” or “R”, thus protecting your car against theft and unauthorized usage. To unlock the car connect the lock with a smartphone application or Bluetooth dongle.
If a thief or another unwanted person, who does not have your phone with the configured application or your unique Bluetooth dongle, gets into your car and turns on the ignition, the use of the E-JOYLOCK will prevent him or her from changing the gear lever from ” P” position, so he will not be able to drive away with your car.
E-JOYLOCK blockage is activated when you turn off the ignition and lock your car with the key. From this moment, the gearbox stick is blocked and it’s not possible to change the position from “P” to “D”, “N” or “R”. There are two options to control and deactivate the lock:
To deactivate the lock you need to install the dedicated phone app, protected by an 8-digit PIN code. The lock connects with the app via bluetooth and unlocks the ability to shift gears. All you have to do is start and configure the app once, and then allow it to run in the background so that E-JOYLOCK connects to the app and deactivates automatically every time you start the car.
E-JOYLOCK controlled by the Bluetooth dongle comes with two, uniquely configured Bluetooth dongles. The lock deactivates when it detects a signal emitted by the dongle. Just have the Bluetooth dongle with you when you get into the car, and the lock automatically deactivates and the car is ready to drive.
No. You should choose one way to control the E-JOYLOCK – the smartphone application or Bluetooth dongle.
E-JOYLOCK is a technologically advanced product, the installation of which must be performed by specialists in the field of mechanics or car electronics. We recommend purchasing and installing the E-JOYLOCK lock only from authorized E-JOYLOCK representatives – i.e. Authorized Dealers and authorized representatives of our company. This will ensure safe and correct installation.
The E-JOYLOCK is a non-invasive system that does not interfere with the original components of your car. The product operates in a plug-and-play system, which means that setup is carried out only by connecting to the original plugs and connectors, without the need of wires incision or interference with other components.
E-JOYLOCK blockage is safe for your car. It is completely non-invasive and does not interfere with the original components. The lock is sold and installed by authorized E-JOYLOCK representatives, including official dealer networks, who ensure that the devices they install do not void the manufacturer’s warranty.
E-JOYLOCK installation does not generate any errors in your car’s on-board computer.
No, installing the E-JOYLOCK does not require incision or soldering original wires or interfering with other components of your car. E-JOYLOCK is setup using original plugs and connectors.
No, you cannot change gear by connecting to the OBD when the E-JOYLOCK is installed. The lock filters the data sent by the OBD to the gear lever and prevents it from shifting from “P” position.
In the case of E-JOYLOCK controlled by the application, intercepting the Bluetooth signal will not enable deactivation of the lock. The Bluetooth signal is only a form of transmission and connection. To deactivate E-JOYLOCK, authorization of the application is required, which is protected by an 8-digit PIN code.
In the case of the E-JOYLOCK controlled by Bluetooth dongle, interception of the signal is unlikely. The Bluetooth dongles are equipped with an accelerometer which means that after leaving the Bluetooth dongle motionless for about 2 minutes, it goes into sleep mode and does not emit a Bluetooth signal. Additionally, the signal in the Bluetooth dongle is configured for low range, which means that the signal cannot be intercepted from a distance greater than 3 meters in an open space.
If you buy a car in which the E-JOYLOCK was already installed by the previous owner, and you want to be sure that no one other than you will know the PIN code for the application or that no one will have Bluetooth dongles configured – you can go to an authorized representative of E-JOYLOCK who, for an additional fee, will reset the settings of E-JOYLOCK controlled by the app or equip E-JOYLOCK with two new uniquely configured Bluetooth dongles. Thanks to this, you can be sure and safe that no one else has access to the device.
E-JOYLOCK app works properly on all Android or iOS phones.
The PIN code is a form of authorization of access to deactivate the E-JOYLOCK. To effectively protect your car against theft, the PIN code must be unique and complex – so that an unauthorized person cannot guess your device’s PIN code. Therefore, in order to maximize security, each E-JOYLOCK automatically, and randomly, generates an 8-digit unique PIN code, which is sent to the application when the lock is first connected to the app.
You can connect any number of phones to E-JOYLOCK. Thanks to this, other authorized people – e.g. family members – can use your car. All you need is for authorized people to install the application on their smartphones and enter the unique 8-digit PIN code provided by you.
E-JOYLOCK has a manual emergency unlocking function. When your phone is discharged or you don’t have it with you, you can unlock the gearbox through a sequence of six movements of the gear stick. You determine the sequence of movements yourself in the E-JOYLOCK app. You can change it freely, without restrictions.
E-JOYLOCK works based on Bluetooth. To enable E-JOYLOCK to connect to your smartphone, install the E-JOYLOCK application and turn on the Bluetooth function on your smartphone.
E-JOYLOCK is equipped with a “service mode” function that you can activate from the application at any time. This function allows you to permanently deactivate the lock for a specified number of days. You can use this function when you need to leave your car at a car repair shop. After collecting your car from the service center E-JOYLOCK will be activated when you reconnect it to the application.
If you want to lend your car to another person, you can enable them to use E-JOYLOCK in several ways. First, you can provide them with a unique emergency unlock sequence. When the car is returned to you, you can change this sequence from the application level, so you can be sure that no one knows your settings. You can also activate the “service mode” function and disable the lock for a specified number of days. In this case, however, your car will not be protected against theft because the lock is deactivated.
E-JOYLOCK is packed in an elegant and product-safe box, which contains application configuration instructions and a warranty card with serial number of the device, installation date and the name and stamp of the company installing the lock.
E-JOYLOCK controlled by Bluetooth dongle is activated when the ignition is turned off and the car is closed. The lock is deactivated when it detects a signal from the Bluetooth dongle. Just have the Bluetooth dongle with you when you get into the car and the lock will automatically deactivate.
Each E-JOYLOCK is configured with two unique Bluetooth dongles and these are the two dongles you receive in the set.
If you lose your Bluetooth dongle, first go to an authorized E-JOYLOCK representative who will configure a new dongle for you for an additional fee. At the same time, you can use your car because E-JOYLOCK has a manual emergency unlocking function, thanks to which you can deactivate the lock by a sequence of six movements of the gear stick. In the case of E-JOYLOCK controlled by Bluetooth dongle, the order of the emergency sequence is permanently configured and cannot be changed. The unique emergency unlocking sequence is included with the product in a laminated envelope.
If you want to lend your car to another user and your E-JOYLOCK is controlled by Bluetooth dongle, you can share one of the two Bluetooth dongles with them. Do not share the emergency unlocking sequence with anyone, because using E-JOYLOCK controlled by Bluetooth dongle, it is not possible to change this sequence.
