Can Tailgate of 2019 Honda Ridgeline Still Unlock if Battery Dies with Pop & Lock System Installed

Question:

Ridgeline’s don’t have locks on the tailgate. I was figuring on buying the add on lock handle PL6250 to resolve the problem. Do you agree?

If your battery were to die on your 2019 Honda Ridgeline then you would simply use your key to unlock your tailgate. The Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Lock # PAL8600 just installs on the inside of your tailgate and automatically activates the manual lock.

I have attached an installation video and the instructions for you to reference.

If you don't already have a tailgate lock on your handle then I recommend going with then the part # PL6250 is what you will want to use as it comes with a lock and keys to manually lock/unlock the tailgate.
