Hoping somebody here can at least point me in the right direction on this........
The power liftgate on my 2010 Yukon XL refuses to open.
I think this is something that has been going bad for a little while - because I noticed on occasion over the course of the last 6 months or so that the hatch would not open, but then I'd try again and it would open fine.
Now it won't open at all. The switch on the overhead console in the front won't open it, the key fob won't open it and the push button in the handle on the liftgate itself won't open it.
I am suspicious that there's something screwy with the lock - because I noticed that if I lock and unlock the truck using the keyfob I don't hear any actuator noises out of the rear hatch (liftgate), and I'm pretty sure I remember hearing the lock release previously when it was working properly.
So I suspect that the lock actuator is not releasing , which then makes the hatch not even try to open because the computer doesn't see that it's unlocked.
Any ideas on how to approach this are appreciated ......
