I thought we decided the fuel door locks? Or is that just a Lariat thing?

No, the door does not lock on any trim level.

There's a LOCK SEnsor Point like on each door on my Gas Flap. I have a Lariat and will test this evening and report back.

My Lincoln fuel door is locked when vehicle is locked but my XLT doesn't lock.

Not sure what you mean by "lock sensor point". There is no way to lock the fuel door. If you are referring to the item pointed out in the attached photo, that is a spring loaded pin that pops the door open when you push on it. You can actually open the fuel door with your fingers without pushing on it.

No, not talking about that as there isn't anything like that on the other vehicle doors as I mentioned in my post. I was talking about the exterior of the door.Each door has an indented area on the handle where you touch to lock the doors. But on further contemplation, I think it might just be there to show where to push to make the pop-out funtion work.

Now I understand. It is just there to show you where to push.

Yup, I checked it out for an earlier thread, nothing gas related locks, door or flap, on any trim level.

Thanks, I honestly wasn't sure, as I don't have my hands on one yet

These are a necessity...I’ve had one on my Mustang since day #1

If the Ranger fuel port design is like the current F-150's the Ford locking gas cap will not work.
