[QUOTE=mwf5888;6131692]All three will work: Keypad, door handle pad or fob.[/QUOTE
So here’s another question, if you hide the fob in the truck and lock it with the keypad. Couldn’t someone just walk up and touch the contact on the handle get in and start it because the fob is inside ?

[QUOTE=Chuck Van;6131706]Yes, that's why many on the forums highly recommend NOT doing that. I Never leave the fobs in my vehicles.

[QUOTE=Chuck Van;6131706]No. The truck knows the fob is inside and disabled that ability to open. You lock and unlock with the fob. It's in the manual.

Humm, so I’d you left the fob inside you would lock the door with the two buttons on the keypad?
Then unlock with the pad

Chuck, do you actually read this forum?
All vehicles are now being made with Auto Engine Off, because morons forget to push the Off button when they park them.
In addition, Secure Idle allows said idiot to leave it running at a store, and not have someone drive it away, because idiots were having their trucks stolen.
Of course emergency workers that did this are not idiots, it's the guy who leaves their kids in a running vehicle while running in the store.
You can pull the 2018 manual from owner.ford.com and read about all these features...
