Right now, whenever anyone walks up to my truck, they can turn on all the interior lights just by pressing any button on the keypad on the driver's door, even when it's locked. Is there any way to disable this behavior? I carry tools in the back of my Ex and I really don't like this at all.
Doesn't the rear most light at the tail gate have a slide switch on it to disable it? My wife is out in the big Ex (Excursion), I am stuck with the little Ex (Expedition) but I really thought it had one.
So at least there is a switch on mine. Disable the 3rd row light and turn off the hatch one.
I locked my 2005 limited last night with the switch/fob/pad. Following all three scenarios once it was locked I tried getting the lights to come on when I touch the keypad and they wouldn't.
I wonder if there is some kinda timer? Later this morning I will go out and hit the keypad first and post results.
Maybe on the owners manual there is a function setting to able / disable it.
I think it's just a functional difference in model years, likely because buyers of early models told them they didn't like the feature.

I'm in Ogden, UT right now and it's pouring rain. And I'm a little buzzed from drinking their 3.2% beers. Otherwise I'd be all over that. Where is this switch exactly?
