Auto Lock when walk away?

[Stratman397]

I've never studied this feature, but I believe I have it or some variant of it.

If washing the car with the FOB in my pocket, the doors will lock/unlock (maybe just unlocking repeatedly) depending on how close I am, often without touching the handle, sometimes when walking away. It's weird, so I just set the FOB off to the side. I think it's wigging out from the going back-and-forth.

While on the topic, consider purchasing a pair of Faraday pouches, one for each FOB, to isolate them when not in use.

Yeah, I noticed it last night, when I was in the garage. I did not even have my keys on me. They were hanging on the hook maybe 30 feet from the garage door and it kept sounding like it was locking and unlocking every time I would move.

That is the water coming in contact with the door handle. All my Fords, with touch lock/unlock, have done this.

Not in my case lastnight. I wasn’t washing nothing in the garage

Then maybe it is just unlocking, as you suspected. The approach is what triggers the lights and the unlock, I believe.
