Tailgate wont open.

Post by hangman3 » Sun May 26, 2019 9:20 am

Hi,
All of a sudden my tailgate wont open. there is no sound in it when the button is pressed on the fob or the dash. I plugged in the scanner & it gave the code B1C42. Haven't been able to find much about it on the web so am coming to you again.
Hopefully someone has got the answer.

Tailgate release switch 2

Need a new switch on the boot I would suggest - or at least a good clean up = its probably corroded.

Cheers,
I did get a replacement switch that was supposed to be a perfect fit but of coarse, it didn't. The main connector was square rather than rectangular, so I sent it back & fixed the original one. Yes it was all corroded up.
