Disable auto lock

I want to disable the auto lock feature on my 2019 but can't find anything in the manual on how to do it. I see there is a sequence for disabling the auto unlock but nothing for the auto lock. Did I miss it in the book or is it not there?

This can be accomplished with the truck running and in park, just by using the left steering wheel buttons.

I disabled the auto lock feature on my 18 because I was sick of getting out of the truck while it was running and the tailgate was locked. It’s in the settings menu on the instrument cluster on my 18 Limited SRW.

Thanks guys. I got it turned off. I was expecting it to be like the old trucks where you had to do the stupid sequence in a set period of time, this was much easier.

Same here, what a pain.
