5 Button Key Fob

[TrickerZ]

Just bought an '07 Limited and I'm in the process of fixing it up. I already fixed the rear HVAC, bought new headlights that aren't fogged, and will be grinding down the roof and repainting with Herculiner soon. I searched around and didn't see anyone who has tried to upgrade to a 5 button fob. It looks like it has a button to unlock/open the rear hatch instead of just the glass. I'm curious if it works if my current fob is only 4 buttons that only opens the glass. I never use the glass so it would be nice to have the option for the hatch. They're cheap and I could just try it, but figured I'd ask here first.

The extra button is for the auto lift tailgate (motorized).

That will only work if it was equipped with the optional electric lift-gate, your dash will have this button to the top right like mine if it is:

Correct! BTW, JExpedition07, the attachment doesn't show up. I get an error message when I click on it.

Should be fixed now, I was trying to crop the image close as possible to the button without an error lol. Random interior shot from my phone.

The original on a Limited was a five button fob. I think we're on our 3rd set of fobs now that the vehicle has 222k miles.

I had a feeling it was only for the power lift gate. I was hoping maybe it would at least unlock the gate if pressed. I just ordered the 4 button ones and they work fine. Good ol' Chinese ones from eBay, 2 for $8.

Next up is installing the Bilsteins in the rear. Getting some good oscillation on bumps, so hoping that'll fix it.
