Important limits

  • If the tailgate closes while the close button is being held, the height was not stored and the procedure must be restarted.
  • Repeated obstacle detections or low 12-volt battery voltage can erase or inhibit positional memory.
  • Check overhead clearance before testing a new setting.
If it does not work

Quick checks.

  • ✓Hold the tailgate at the chosen height for the full three seconds before holding the close button.
  • ✓If positional memory is lost, manually close it, run one full open cycle and then one full close cycle.
  • ✓Seek authorized service if powered operation remains inhibited.
