Non functioning auto close tailgate

Post by Johnc76. »

Afternoon all
My auto closing tailgate (14 plate executive estate) has stopped working.
I have the dreaded blue stain on the headlining so know its the rear wash wipe pipe thats leaked in the right hand gaiter and caused it but now its dried out the closing button is still lighting and I even managed to use it to reset the opening angle.
My question is if the button is OK does that mean the closing motors could have blown a fuse and if so does anyone know what number fuse it is as I can't find any mention of it.
I know I have to get the tubing sorted but if I lay off using the rear wash I'm hoping I can get use of the auto close as now the auto open is working again.
Thanks in advance.
John
