Replying to: jackmindi (Jan 07, 2008 2:07 am) I had problems with my liftgate for awhile too. My instrument panel started acting up in the dash recently so I needed to go get that fixed as well. When that got fixed, my liftgate opens now!! I had a new computer put in, something along the lines of a new body control module, and it was under the automatic shifter. It cost around $450 or so. Now everything is fine.

Replying to: jackmindi (Jan 07, 2008 2:07 am) There is something on each side that releases the liftgate, if one of them isn't working, its not going to be real easy to correct. I tried to fine how to get into the thing but I can't find the info as of yet. Basicly you have to climb into the back and remove the panel that covers the taligate (bottom part). I think the way to do it is to use special tool they have for trim removal (or use what ever you can I guess) to carefully loosen panel from tabs on top and (again I think) remove screws that hold it on on the bottom. That will allow access to mechanism and you can do what you have to from there. I'll post again if I can find more on procedure and what to look for when you get there.

Replying to: ray80 (Jan 08, 2008 9:08 am) I still have my rear bottom tailgate panel pulled off because that was where the auto mechanic started to look when I had the problem. Until my Body Control Module was replaced, I was told I could pull both wires on the two black bulky things underneath the panel and it would open. Also, the mechanic broke the panel so I still have to replace it. Wish there would've been an easier way to take it off.
