Easy-Pack Tailgate and Remote Key miscommunication?
My Easy-Pack tailgate will not open when using the button on the key.
It operates normally (opening and closing) when using the internal switch located on the driver's door and also operates normally when using the handle located on the outer tail-gate.
It will close (from an open position) when using the button on the key.
Here's the problem; it unlocks but won't lift and open when using the key.
It seems that the tail-gate open/close mechanism is working correctly but for some reason the it won't 'talk' to the key to open.
The battery has recently been replaced and I thought that I had recalibrated everything.
Is there a calibration that I have missed?
Has anyone else had this problem?
Thank you,
Peter.

Where's SAM?
I have been advised that the problem may be the 'SAM'.
Can anybody advise where the SAM/s that controls the tailgate are located (I assume it is in the right rear panel) and how do I pick it out from the other components in the block?
Thanks,
Peter.
