Glad it helped! Really was a head scratcher for a while. Keep an eye out for it to happen again. Got my battery replaced under warranty because of this.

How does the Bronco know it is you?2021 OBX 4-Door. Can't find any threads on this.
Anyone else had their Keyless Entry (not the number pad, but by touching the door handle) stop working at the tailgate? Was working fine until a week or two ago. Still works at the driver's door. Can't find specific settings for it in the manual (below). My tech brain makes me suspect an OTA software update gone bad. Anyone have a fix? Trying to avoid needing a dealership service appointment.
Seems sketchy.

Granted this is an old thread but definitely useful. My previous fords all showed little electric gremlins before the battery's died out. Focus the power windows started acting goofy, Explorer the powerlift gate would get a mind of it's own when the button was pushed and everytime it was just a sign the battery was on it's way out

Yeah, I've seen silly things like that related to the electrical sysetms. My last car was an '05 Mustang GT Convertible, so my '21 Bronco is lightyears ahead technologically. Seems that the electrical limp mode caused by a low battery is by design in the computer system.

Well, it doesn't. It just knows if I have the key fob.
