I’m not sure. If I have the (802A) fob in my pocket, I can open the tailgate but the doors do not unlock. The only thing holding me back from getting this is potentially all the false alarms going off from opening/closing the tailgate, which I normally do before I get into the truck.
The shock sensor disarms itself when the truck detects the fob. If I go out to my truck with it locked and do not have the fob with me, the tailgate will not open and any banging or vibrations will set the alarm off.
If I have the fob in my pocket, the tailgate will open and the shock sensor will temporarily disable. The rest of the alarm will remain active until you walk away from the truck. Then the shock sensor will auto arm again.
This is how it worked when I first got it. Just went outside and tested again so rest assured. The shock sensor is the best upgrade I’ve completed and gives me a completely new piece of mind when I’m parked at dinner or parked on a neighborhood street. Instead of just having interior motion and door jam alarm sensors, I now have a security web wrapped around the truck protecting it from all angles.
Oh, and it integrates with Ford pass so it will let you know when it detects anything. Even if it’s the initial warning honk, you get a notification.
Lastly, haven’t had any issues with false alarms. The module works flawlessly.
