Welcome to the Forum from NH.

Lots of knowledgeable folks here who freely share their knowledge, experiences, and perspectives. Knowledge is power.

I hope that you will become a participating member in the Forum's discussions.

Pics of the truck, please.

I am assuming that when you try to open the tailgate to unlock the clasp, it does not unlock. Correct?

I cannot personally assist you with your issue, but other members of this Forum much more knowledgeable than me in this area will chime in.

Did you hit the unlock button on the handle and try to pry the lock tab open? Is it making the electrical thump noise to unlatch?
