Here is my 22 lariat 502a. Built in
8/22
No x2 on mine.

Interesting. My ‘22 XLT built in July has the x2 button. I have power release only.

The one with 2x is the 22 Tailgate button . 22 has the tailgate set to 2 presses within 3 seconds. 21 got the update to have that as an option.

I have a 22, and it does not have the 2X button. Built 5/22, Lariat mid.

Then don't you have the power up/down tailgate?

Yes it does

Yes it does

I think the thread is starting to bring clarity. Although Ford has introduced the 2X button into recent builds, any truck that has power up & down is still going to be 1X button.

Just adding another data point to reinforce the findings.

501A with power up/down, build 7/22, single press.

Yeah.. Looks like the power release and close have teh single press and power release only have the double press.

So Im betting that will be the way it shakes out.

I puled a bunch of 22 new builds limited tat have the power up and down and none had double press.

I pulled a bunch of XLTs and they all did have double press.

So Im pretty sure that is the reason that we see some with the 2x and some without for the later 22s.

The 21s have the ability with the BCM update to make it double press for power release only though.

So it seems to me that is the breakdown.

My 22 King Ranch PB single press power up and down tailgate. Pro power button above the screen centre of dash.
