My fob stopped unlocking or locking the doors...remote start and panic wouldn't work either but it WOULD work using my hand to lock and unlock on the door handle and the truck would start and run.....after trying several things including asking the dealer (ummm...just leave it with us) I fixed it. Here is how. Put the fob on the front seat. ..get out and lock the door with the door handle button. The horn will blow 3 times warning you the FOB is inside. Remove the FOB and try it... mine worked fine after this. Hope this helps someone. I suspect the security system was confused ....

Roll your window down before you do this. That way if the trucks actually listens to you and locks you out, you can still get in without finding your spare.

2020 Limited here with the same problem. Didn’t work. Shoot; I had high hopes! Gonna pull the battery leads. If that doesn’t work, does anyone have any ideas? Thanks!
