Powerfold Mirrors... suddenly don't fold! Tailgate Issue too!!

What's next I'm wondering...

After a successful weekend of getting a replacement door fitted perfectly, in the last 24 hours 2 more things have gone wrong with my hippo...


Firstly, the powerfold door mirrors have suddenly stopped powerfolding! They were working fine this morning, but now they won't at all.

Went out at lunch time and the relay started clicking when the button was pushed downwards... but no fold. After a few pushes they went. Tried again with no problem, then again with only the click. Then they just stopped altogether. No click, no fold, nothing!



Secondly, and more improtantly, the tailgate won't shut properly or easily... it will shut but takes a hell of a push near the bottom to get it to go.

I've searched for both of these problems to no avail...

Anyone got any ideas??

Worth mentioning , I think that the rear window is working fine... goes down when the handle is pulled and up when the door is eventually closed.

this mite help.

Cheers MHM...

Any clues on the tailgate issue?
