2013 XC60 electrical tailgate fault

Hi

I'm looking for some advice on fault finding. I have a 2013 XC60 where the power tailgate button has stopped working. This also coincided with the internal light on the inside of the tail gate not working.

I've lived with this for a couple of months but recently the boot refused to open off the key fob and the internal button on the dash. This is an intermittent fault but I need to get it sorted now.

I'm pretty sure there is a broken wire in one of the rear looms which is causing this, I assume where the wires twist when the boot moves and possibly an earth wire that the internal light and power tailgate share.

Does anyone have knowledge of the wiring set up before I start pulling panels off or even better have fixed a similar issue.
Any good advice appreciated! thanks

Matt you are on the wrong forum, you should put your post on the one in the link below, there will be more knowledge and help for you on there. This one is for the newer spa models, you may get some help but best chance is on the other forum page. Good luck.
