Happy Easter for those who recognize the holiday!

Returned from 10 days away from the Jeep and pulled on the swing gate without the fob. Swing gate opened and alarm went off. Figured it might be a drained battery, so let it run for 20 minutes. Same issue. Disconnected the battery/reconnected and same issue. I know I hit the lock button before heading out.

Can’t seem to find any known issues or solutions. Guessing it might be the swing gate power lock, but wanted to check with the experts.

New battery is 6 months old and Jeep has 36k miles. Had a ton of rain while we were away as well.

Thought?

Appreciate any insights.

Did you replace the aux battery too?

Rain has nothing to do with the issue.

No, bypassed the aux battery when replaced. Don’t drive it enough to keep it charged. Bypassed using recommendations from this forum.
