Key Detection not working

[davehu]

I know many curse the horns honking when the Lightning detects a truck running without a key present. Fortunately FMC allows us to disable it. But, I for one, like it but recently mine quit working. I have disabled it and turned it back on and it does nothing. I have PAAK enable but it doesn't matter whether I have my phone with me or not, I get no horn honks. Before I request a service call, anyone else seen this issue?

Mine only beeps if I lock the truck first before closing the door. If I use the keypad it doesn't and just locks.

Do you have a fob hidden in the truck? I had one in a faraday bag and it suddenly started getting detected. Had to double-bag it.

Mine use to honk at me but doesn't any longer. No clue what's up. I do not have PAAK as an option.

So, I am not alone. sounds like a recent update changed something. I'll be setting up a service call this week. will post here what I find out.

I misread earlier, mine has never beeped when running with no key unless I try to lock the key in it. My walkaway lockimg is disabled.

Mine only honks if I exit and I close the door while truck is on, reminding me that the truck is still on.

My 2023 Pro "chimes" once if I lock it while it is running.
I used FORscan to enable 'silent mode' - before that it used to honk which I found to be too loud.

My related issue is that once in awhile the truck will chime continuously when I shut it off and open the door with no indication of what’s wrong. Cycling power seems to clear the issue.
