Can you see the sensors up above? It may not have one - perhaps just remote locking and a factory immobiliser.

How did you try testing it?

Leave a window open, double lock the car (button twice) then reach in and open the bonnet...

It should come as standard I thought. Take it to ford ask them to demonstrate it working just to check

Yeah it's what I thought and kind of want to avoid ford as I have done stuff that they may get picky about through warranty just in case I do have it and it's broke then they won't fix it lol. Going to check the ford etis website to see what it says on there
