I have an '09 Hoe LT and my lift gate and rear wiper just stopped working. Not long ago, I would try to open the lift gate, via the key fob and manually, and I would hear the sound as though it was going to lift, but then I could hear it lock back up. Now, I hear nothing whether I use the key fob or do it manually. I have done some searching online but not coming up with anything. I am able to open the rear window just fine though.

I have looked at the fuses (23 and 44) but will be going outside now to check 23 in the instrument panel fuse block. So far, fuses look good. I am not sure what else to try. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

UPDATE: 23 in the instrument panel fuse block is also fine.

Thank you

Did you ever find the cause of this or a solution? Mine just started doing this today.

Can you get the lift gate open manually? If so, check the wire loom flex tubing at the top. I've heard that some of the wires could get frayed at this location and can be a problem area.
