Power rear lift gate close and lock feature

[BrickShitHouse]

A couple times when trying to use the close and lock feature for the power rear lift gate it will just beep on not close. Is there something I am missing that is preventing it from closing?

I have the same issue. I think it doesn’t always detect the key fob but don’t know for sure.

I'm pretty sure it has to be programmed by the dealer or diagnostic computer.

It works maybe 25% of the time for me. I haven’t figured it out yet. I rarely ever use though - partially because I don’t expect it to work

Same here on this issue and to me no rhyme or reason. Did it yesterday. Are we still standing underneath the gate and it senses it and does not come down?

Also is anyone like me and wish it would not beep and make all the noise when the gate is lifted or closed? I tried to look into stopping the alarms but couldn't find anything about it. You cannot open my gate discretely. There must be a way.

I tried standing under it as a test and when it works it’s more then happy to close and allow me to duck out of the way

Wow,
Just saw the answer to my problem with this ......all the doors have to be closed. I remember both times for me my front door was open.

I'll have to play around with it and see if this was it, but I kind of think this will resolve for me

I’ve definitely had it happen with all the doors closed because without doing anything but pressing the button a few times it worked

You can change the beep volume in three increments, not sure if it will allow you to turn it off. Multimedia display, I think under Vehicle Settings, but could be wrong on that (perhaps Entry/Exit?).

Thanks for the tip. I have seen beep volume now that you say it...on the dash in front of steering wheel. I will play around tomorrow with it. Thank you.

No, it’s on by default. Just like the remote start from the key fob it takes practice. I hit the button and walked to the side and 90% of the time it works.

 

[LCOceans]

Remote start from key fob definitely takes practice. Its a no-brainer really but the beeps throw me off half of the time.
All you have to do is click lock 3 times at regular intervals (1 second apart), and hold on last one until you see the yellow lights blink quickly.

Had this happen to me when I realized the glass access hatch wasn’t fully closed properly!

I had the tail gate open and tried to start the motor with it open .Won't happen and all doors need to be closed also. I was using the app to start the motor.
