Tailgate not locking

[jpaulsbronco]

My tailgate will not lock when using the button or key fob. Proximaty works on the back handle and it shows the tailgate closed on the dash. Does anyone think the latch is bad? Is that a known issue with the broncos?

Could it be from the handle upgrade you did?

Exactly the same with my tailgate handle. My service dept had to replace the handle. No explanation for the failure.

It was working fine and I can lock the truck with the button on the tailgate just not the tailgate.

I did install the oem hitch, could that be an issue?

Did you unplug the antenna for the auto lock/unlock?

I just checked and it is plugged in, not sure what is going on
