Hey guys,



I bought a Ford Tonneu cover from someone locally, and installed it.

I even got a copy of theur key (without the PATS system chip) so I can lock it, unlock it.



It was working fine, and always auto-locked when I closed it. However, a few weeks ago,

I drove with it half open (had some stuff in yhe bed) and it banged against the cargo.



Since then, it won't lock anymore. It fully seats, and I can actually see that it goes down flush

like before. But no locking.



Is there something I need to do to "reset" it or something?



Thanks,



Alex R
 
Apply some WD-40 and try pushing the locking mechanism manually. Mine does that sometimes and doing this works for me.
