Hi,
Owning a Tourer I have been expecting the auto tailgate to fail sooner or later.
It's finally gone.
No keyfob operation + No manual operation = NO BOOT (fullstop) ...& a handy "TAILGATE" reminder on the dashboard just in case you foget you have lost your boot.
Ripping apart the rear boot section of the car I was happy to find a cut cable in the loom running through the L/H hinge. Result I thought, soldering it back together (after removing battery terminals first, of course).
Returning power, I now have manual release available as well as keyfob open, but sadly no close function from the key.
However, once the boot is closed the first time, TAILGATE appears on the dash once more - This appears to be out of calibration where it does not know the correct closed position???
Do all covers/panels need to be fitted in order for the sensors to funtion correctly (they are still off the car)?
I have tried the ECU reset sequence for the tailgate several times but the same symptoms persist.
Any ideas from anyone?
