2000 V70 tailgate lock not working with remote

Hi,
We have a 2000 V70 with a tailgate lock that only works sometimes with the remote. Cooler weather (San Francisco area) makes it worse. The remote works all the other locks fine and the manual lock (key) on the tailgate locks and unlocks the tailgate. When the remote does not work, there is no sound coming from the tailgate or anywhere else that I can hear.

Any ideas one and all? Thanks, Brad

Your car is only 7 years old, but it could still be the wiring in the hinge area of the tailgate. When it is colder, the wires have less flex.
