What are the reasons for the malfunction of the Envision's power tailgate?

[LaTheo]

Envision's power tailgate malfunction may be caused by the control box not working, the tailgate not closing properly or unevenly, the support rod not functioning, or intermittent operation. Details are as follows: Control box not working: The reasons for not working may include incorrect or improperly connected power take-off positions, poorly connected ground wires causing circuit issues, or insufficient car battery power. Tailgate not closing properly or unevenly: Specific issues include improperly installed waterproof seals in the trunk, poorly fitted interior panels, or improperly connected support rod wiring. Support rod not working or intermittent operation: Examples include improperly connected support rod wiring, poor contact of the Hall sensor wires, poorly connected control box ground wires, or improperly connected power wires.

Last time I encountered the issue of the Envision's power tailgate not opening, I tried troubleshooting myself and found it might be a blown fuse. Checking the fuse box in that location makes it easy to replace. Sometimes it's due to poor wire contact, especially when connectors oxidize in humid weather, causing a short circuit and making the tailgate unresponsive. If the control button doesn't respond, it could be internal switch wear or aging wiring. Additionally, if the motor makes unusual noises, it indicates a faulty motor or insufficient lubrication, leading to difficulty in lifting. My friend's car once had a sensor malfunction, where it incorrectly detected being on a slope and wouldn't operate. It's advisable to regularly clean the moving parts of the tailgate to avoid minor issues. When a fault occurs, avoid forcefully pulling it to prevent damaging more components—it's best to seek professional repair services.

From experience, the causes of power tailgate malfunctions in the Envision are diverse. First, consider electrical factors such as blown fuses or low battery voltage affecting power supply stability. Second, control unit issues, including software requiring reset or module damage. Then there are mechanical components, like motor overheating failure or insufficient lubrication of sliding rails causing jamming. Sensor errors are also a common point, where obstacle detection failure leads to the tailgate's automatic protection not working. During inspection, prioritize checking simple components and don't overlook loose wiring connections. The Envision's tailgate system is relatively sensitive and prone to aggravated malfunctions due to bumps or humidity. Timely diagnosis can save on major repair costs.

A malfunctioning power tailgate can be quite frustrating, especially when you need to quickly retrieve items in an emergency. I believe the causes may include blown fuses, motor failure, or control button malfunctions. It could also be due to short circuits in the wiring or safety locks triggered by sensor issues. Don't overlook daily wear and tear, such as repeated opening and closing leading to faster component aging. If this happens, don't force it—safety first. Envision owners should conduct regular inspections to minimize unexpected issues.
