Tailgate lock flaky 850 96

posted by  someone claiming to be Johan Modig on  Thu Dec 20 02:44 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Hi all,

The tailgate lock on my 96 855 does not always lock/unlock with the central lock. All other doors work 100%. Might this be related to my battery going bad (which is the case)? Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot and/or fix this are much appreciated.

I would rather not remove the tailgate trim since I spent quite some time fixing the oh so familiar problem with the trim coming loose and rattling (using my homemade kit which included a lot of filing small metal washers :-). I found getting it all back together rather taxing but it's rock solid (and quiet) now.

Many thanks in advance

Johan
