In this episode the tailgate switch finally gives up the ghost. watch this video to see how we diagnose and fix the problem. I bought my new switch from amazon UK, see the link below: amzn.to/49uxZrp
Hi guys Im a bit confused now with my faulty tailgate. It meets all the criteria of a faulty switch (upper tailgate opens from dash lower tailgate opens ok with switch ) After research I went to go change switch & someone had already attempted the repair. Touched the stripped wires together to check latch unlock functionality without switch - nothing. Is there a voltage reading I should expect on the two stripped switch cables? Is there another step before moving onto the lower tailgate solenoid change? Plus if there is nothing happening at my switch not sure how the lower tailgate solenoid change will alleviate issue upper tailgate switch not functioning? Hope this explanation of my situation so far with tailgate makes sense and any help of the ideal next step would be greatly appreciated Thanking in advance
Hi Sean, this is a strange one, buddy. If you are not getting any power at the terminal ends where it meets the switch in the tailgate then there must be a break further along the line, supposing yo8 have ruled out the simple things first like fuses and faulty switches themselves. I'm really not sure where else to check to be totally honest, and I have since sold my Landy on, so I can't even go out and compare mine to yours for you either. I hope you get it sorted, buddy 👍
