Is this because it's low voltage only? I'm trying to figure out if the cap will work with the proximity tailgate? I'm guessing from your response it's a no. I don't understand how the cap manufactures can't answer questions like this. I reached out to ARE and Leer on this and they both gave me a "not sure". I just wish I could tie into the latch or proximity sensor in the tailgate.
This has to be a solvable problem right? If the tailgate sends a low voltage I don't see why that couldn't be stepped up or lower the amount of voltage the sensor expects to see. One of those has to be an option right?
The trouble is that it isn’t a lock or unlock signal. When you push the tailgate button the computer sees that and if it’s memory for the tailgate says it’s “locked” then it doesn’t send anything, if it says it’s “unlocked” then it sends a signal to open. There isn’t an actual lock or unlock signal for the cap to receive.
