Agree,

There's a cable tie installed too tight during the factory installation that can eventually bind and break the tailgate wires through years of flexing. Happened on our car too (2000 V70). (Didn't use another cable tie when reassembling).

Splicing and/or soldering the wires should correct the tailgate electrical issues.
