Checked auto lock. Not the issue. Disconnected battery for 1/2 hour to reboot computer. Not sure if it had a back up battery on board, but manual indicated that after battery disconnect it takes a bit for van to run normal until it recalibrates. This implies a reboot. Also bought a “glove box key” for $20 at Ford dealer. Likely if I’d bought the key in beginning the problem would have never appeared.
thanks for the replies.
On a regular basis I get locked out of my 2016 TC. All sorts of situations. Key in ignition engin running, not running, on seat. Today while clearing snow off vehicle with engine running to melt ice I got locked out. Mirrors didn’t fold. Help!
