Hi guys, I have read lots of posts about changing locks and switches for a problematic tail gate. My tail gate wouldn’t open but with the aid of a second person holding the two buttons in on the dash, I can always get in. I replaced the door handle with the micro switch but nothing changed. I then bought a cheap second hand lock on eBay and it worked for a day before packing up. I then bought an expensive 2nd hand lock and that worked for a day and packed up. I’ve taken the handle out and snipped the two black wires to the micro switch and touched them together thinking it would show if micro switch was playing up, but nothing works. The tail gate never fails to open when using dash buttons. Am I missing something stupid like a blown fuse? Any help would be great guys. I know it’s not a serious problem but it really does p*** you off

Did you manage to resolve your problem? I have exactly the same issue and would appreciate understanding why on earth connecting the two wires together won't open my tail gate.
Thanks
