Racer Rog 1 Report post Posted August 27, 2015 Have got all apart, to try and trace fault, the upper glass portion of tailgate will only open some times, and sometimes it will will open the whole thing, so don't know if some of the wiring in the hinge is broken, and also the demister does not work, not sure where the relay is for this. any clues Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
