When you get out of the truck with keys.. does your truck lock?

[dlbb]

lol like i said i got stuck........ but absolutely no complaints.

i didn't even order mine. i randomly found it after looking at the build and price one day.
"it was meant for us since it was built right after my birthday." my wife. her birthday is 4/25. the truck is 4/28.

Wow. This thread went sideways quick and I don't think you ever got your question answered!

It is NORMAL (and very important) behavior for the car/truck to honk when walking away from a running vehicle with the FOB. Some vehicles politely chime, others are a little less "kind" and honk instead. ;-)

If you think about it, this makes complete sense just in case someone other than he driver accidentally walks away with the FOB in their purse/pocket!!

This is also a measure to prevent tossing the FOB into the trunk; causing it to lose the connection with the vehicle. Heck, some vehicles are so sensitive, they require the FOB to be in the front driver's area!

HTH

I can confirm the part about the sensitivity. Unless I am near the driver's side the truck will display a key missing message. Even standing outside on the passenger side leaning in is not close enough.

The salesman turned off the honk, disabled auto stop/start, and a few other things when I picked up the truck.

I was told that if you turn the truck off, walk away from the truck with the FOB that it locks (802A) after 45 seconds. Is this true?

no. the auto relock feature is a forscan change. it will auto reloc 45 seconds after pressing the unlock button if no doors are opened.

Will it lock w fob inside? I miss locking my keys inside. I still do it but would prefer to not have to use door keypad Everytime I want to do it.

i think you need to wrap the fob in tinfoil or something to lock it in the truck. really i don't know since my fob stays in my pocket.

Fairly certain Auto Relock does not work (even via FORScan) for 2017 or 2018 trucks.

NO. You can always lock your key fob in the truck (no tinfoil required). I think the owner's manual details a number of ways to do it. The easiest and one I use whenever I'm headed out on the mountain and don't want the big fob in my pocket is to place the fob out of sight in the console, close the doors and lock it using the 7-8 + 9-0 keypress.
