2007 chevy suburban power lift gate problem
Push any of the buttons to open the tail gate and it does not open. It makes all the noises and unlatches but does not open. When manually opened, I push the button it makes all the noises and does not close. The motor is working, but my guess is that the mag clutch is not engaging and I dont know why. I call it the mag clutch, because I dont know what it is called. It uses electricity to engage when it open or closes. any help would be appreciated.

latch assy?
Local dealers says its the latch assy inside the door. supposedly not sending signal to the powerlift gate assy to open or close. They want $443 to repair. Not comfortable with answer that an assy in the door is not owrking and the door wont open. Is this probable? Hate to spend $443 and that not fix the problem. They also said latch assy must be programed at the dealer for it to work. Im confused. Any suggestions?

Any updates to this? I have the same problem with my 2007. Console, remote, or rear hatch button all do the same thing... latch unlatches, but I have to pull the door a bit or it will re-latch. The auto lift does not engage. I hear it, but it does nothing. I had to pull it and would feel it disengage.
I have also heard that it could be the electronics in the latch mechanism that is not telling the lift to lift. The latch does make all kinds of noises and sounds like it cannot make up its mind what it is doing upon opening. I am about to list to sell, but want to fix this before I do. |
