'11 wagon power tailgate functionality
I'm thinking my powered tailgate isn't fully functional, and thought I'd ask the experts.
What works:
What works:
- Hold the remote button and the tailgate will open
- Pull the driver's door switch and the tailgate will open
- Press the tailgate's close button and the tailgate will close
- Press the tailgate's lock button and the tailgate will close, the doors will lock
- Manually adjust open tailgate's height, hold the lock button two seconds, and it sets the open-to height appropriately
- Hold the remote button with the tailgate open, and it doesn't close. Neither the remote's tailgate button, nor its lock button
- Tailgate closed, doors unlocked, manually pull the tailgate open latch... and manually pull it up. Doesn't power itself up

- Pressing and holding trunk lid button, will power open the trunk lid
- Once trunk lid is open, pressing and holding trunk lid button does nothing, beside audible "ding" sound
- Pulling and releasing the exterior trunk lid handle, with lid closed, trunk lid power lifts
- Pulling and holding the exterior trunk lid handle will let you manually lift the trunk lid
