Doors off issues -- airbag lights, door ajar warning, no key detected warnings

[Stick355]

Weather finally got nice in the NE today so decided to take the top/doors off this morning. Been driving prior to today with zero issues. Now I have airbag lights, door ajar warning (2dr) and no key detected warnings. I can’t keep driving it and having it double honk 3-4 times at a red light, I’m gonna piss someone off . This is the first time I’ve had the doors off since I received some sort of OTA update a week-ish ago. Anyone else see this?

Def weird. I had the doors off about 3 weeks ago and got the normal warnings ( not airbag, but electrical disconnected). Allegedly there is a spot in the bottom of the center console to put your key if the battery is out/ truck is not recognizing it. GL

I have not put it all back together, I might this evening.

If I put the key in the little storage compartment in front of the shifter, it won’t start, pick them up and hold them, works fine. Throw them back and works fine, then get to a red light, starts honking. Does this with both keys. I’m assuming the airbag is due to the door ajar issue.

The secret key spot is in the bottom of the center console. Not the small console in front of the shifter.

The plug shorts two pins when you take the door off, I would check all of the plugs first.

Try a little sand paper between the bar and the 2 pins it's supposed to short out. I had door ajar issues and fixed it in about 60 seconds by cleaning those off in order to make sure that little bar is making contact with those 2 pins.
