The Chevrolet Multi-Flex Tailgate and GMC MultiPro Tailgate (RPO QK2) available on the 2022-2024 Silverado 1500, Silverado 2500\/3500, Sierra 1500 and Sierra 2500\/3500 offers enhanced access to the cargo box with a primary gate and inner gate (Fig. 5), both of which are released using the buttons on the tailgate.<\/p>\n

The multifunction tailgate offers a disabling procedure to prevent the inner gate from being lowered. If the inner gate disabling procedure is inoperative, check that the vehicle is equipped with Passive Entry (RPO AVJ). If it is not equipped with RPO AVJ, it will not have the rear bumper antenna that allows disabling of the inner gate.<\/p>\n

Disabling the Inner Gate<\/strong><\/p>\n

Do not lower the inner gate with the primary gate open (easy access or step positions) if a hitch ball or trailer is attached. This may damage the tailgate due to the amount of clearance between the hitch receiver and the lowered inner gate.<\/p>\n

To disable the inner gate from opening, press and hold the upper button on the tailgate for 3 seconds. (Fig. 6) The key fob must be within 3 feet (1 meter) of the rear bumper.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The tail lamps will flash when the inner gate has been disabled. The inner and outer gates can still be operated like a traditional tailgate, but the inner gate will not be able to be opened alone.<\/p>\n

To enable the inner gate function, press and hold the upper button on the tailgate for 3 seconds until the tail lamps flash. The inner gate can then be opened separately from the outer gate.<\/p>\n
