mkla Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 So I now have a total of 3 concussions from the tailgate in my 05 rx330 suddenly deciding to close - I'll try to post all the details, but it's hard to remember everything.... This has happened in a period of 1 week, so definitely a new thing. I'll open the tailgate (usually manually). It'll open fully, I'll reach in to get something and before I know it it's beeping and closing (I've now discovered how useless those beeps are because by the time it starts beeping it's already hit your head -- maybe I'm just slow...) So here's what I know - all three times have been in the parking lot, so the tailgate did not hit anything that suddenly made it start closing) - one time, the keys were in the front seat, so the button didn't get pushed accidentally - this has not happened prior to last week - there are times when it's open and does not close unprovoked. - pushing the button to open / close still works. Any ideas what may be causing this, and where I can start to troubleshoot? Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
code58 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Have you checked your owners manual for any reference to reseting the close to default. I know there have been a # of posts over a period of time on windows doing things they're not supposed to. There is a procedure I believe to "reset" them so that they work properly. Is there any possibility that the button on the remote is sticking a little bit and responding when it shouldn't? Probably not, but stranger things have happened. 1st. place I would look is the OM, if you haven't already. Is there any possibility the button on the lift gate itself is problematic?
