I recently installed a stealthbox and afterwards my Auto Unlock from the rear hatch handle doesn’t work. It works from the fob. Does anyone know if/where the module is located in the rear? I’m thinking I missed a harness somewhere when buttoning everything up. Thanks!

Did you remove the rear trim panel on either side? If so, you probably forgot to plug the PATS antenna back in

I removed both rear panels. Where is the PATS located?

I believe the PATS antenna is located on the left side panel ( driverside)

I had a similar issue after installing the Tow modules behind the panel. Look for a disconnected plug and I hope you’ll be good to go.

There is a plug for PATS behind each panel?
The PATS is a small, rectangular antenna that's mounted - there is one behind each panel. A bit bigger than a pack of gum.

You had to unplug it to remove the panel. On the driver's side I think that's the only plug you have to pull, on the passneger side there's also the power point and the cargo light -- total of 3 harnesses.

Very easy to miss plugging it back in, or not having it snap in all the way.
