Thank you Mikealder for your help. It was just a broken wire. Just took a little time to find the culprit but an easy fix.

I had the same problem. "Tailgate Open" message, tailgate won't lock, blowing fuses to tail lights, etc. There were several breaks in the wiring loom just after it exits the hinge, about a foot from the big grey plug.

Question Broken Boot Lock

Hi I have just fixed a number of broken wires in mine but it still wont work. Is there a separate fuse for the boot lock?
