Truck doesn’t recognize when Tailgate is open?

[WyattKai]

Has anyone had an issue where the truck doesn’t recognize the tailgate being open? My cargo lights won’t come on when opening the tailgate and the console doesn’t give me any warnings or recognize its ajar. This just started happening yesterday... is there a fuse specifically for the tailgate?omegle xender

There is another thread on this exact thing somewhere.

Mine never worked from the factory. I had to use AlfaODB to enable it. Doesn't explain why yours stopped working though.

NO TAILGATE AJAR WARNING ?? 2020 ram rebel

Just confirmed my bed lights do not come on when the tailgate is opened. They come on with the door opening, switch in cab, unlocking truck, and switch in OEM bed lights. Guess I'm okay with that. Mine come on when I open tailgate. So I have all the lights on dash and pictures on dash, nothing...

Mine does the same. Dealership opened a star case. Was told it gets lost with a software update and Chrysler don't know why.

I did the same as I had the same issue.
