Is there a kit of any kind that warns the driver of an open tailgate? Can't tell with a tonneau cover from the driver's seat. It would have been so easy to include that from the factoryu since there is already a cable going into the gate.
I'm with you on that request but, you can check it now by turning on your backup camera thru uconnect. You will know if it's up or not.Is there a kit of any kind that warns the driver of an open tailgate? Can't tell with a tonneau cover from the driver's seat.

That setting is for FCA vehicles equipped with the sensor in the latch and BCM output, such as the 5th gen 1500s. HDs don’t have the sensor.The "ECUConfig 4: Tailgate Ajar Indication" setting in AlfaOBD seems to indicate it may be available, but I've not tried it.
Good to know. I won't waste my time enabling it then.That setting is for FCA vehicles equipped with the sensor in the latch and BCM output, such as the 5th gen 1500s. HDs don’t have the sensor.
I use my camera too when I need to but I would like to know as soon as it opens or unlocks. One time I perform a test where I unlocked the gate with remote and with tonneau cover on the gate was closed but it was unlocked. I start driving and at some point it opened.I don't think it is possilbe to add a sensor. I check my rear view camera since I canl't see it in the mirror due to the tonneau cover. I agree, a sensor would have been appropriate on a 100K truck.
