Having some work done on the truck and will pick up after the store has closed. They suggested locking the keys in the truck and having me use second set of keys to open the truck. However, I don't think the truck will LET you lock either set of keys in the truck.

Is there another solution?

it will lock the keys in the truck as long as they arent in the ignition when using the fob. You can lock in the ignition using the door pad on my XLT.

If it's got the keyless start, throw them in the door panel. I do it all the time at the boat ramp.

When I go cycling at the trail, I throw the key fob into the centre console and then use the keypad on the driver door to lock/unlock. Pressing the bottom 2 buttons will lock the truck and of course, whatever code you program to unlock.

Curious...if the keys are in the truck will the unlock perimeter button work on the door? I unlock my door all the time with the fob in my pocket using the button on door handle.

No. It won't work. It knows the fob is in the truck.

No, it will not unlock if the fob is inside the vehicle.

Correct, this is intended as a safety feature so you can't be sitting idling in a parking lot in a locked vehicle and have someone come up and just unlock your car and get access to you.

Which would be pretty scary on its own, but thinking you were mostly safe in a locked vehicle would definitely add to that.

You are correct- at least on the Lariat level. You can't lock the truck with the second key fob if the keys are in it. To lock it with the keys in it:

Press and hold the 7/8 and 9/0 button on the key pad simultaneously. It will lock the doors with the key in it. To unlock it, you can use the second fob or you can enter the code on the keypad.

It also works on the Explorer.

I found the answer a few years ago while playing around in the driveway.
This still isn't in any ForScan spreadsheet.
