Not Locking after 8mph

My car has suddenly stopped auto locking the doors once the speed has gone past 8mph. It used to do this automatically but suddenly stopped.

Does anyone know what the correct fix is?

Thanks everyone!

Might just be a glitch. Try pressing the lock/unlock on the dashboard panel to the lock position and hold that for a few seconds. I don't remember if the car needs to be running but I suspect it does.

This is a function you can choose to use or not. It may just need resetting.
