Original problem: Tail gate would not open, but the tailgate window works up and down. DIC read tailgate - see manual
Update as of today sunday:
Took it to my dads house. He is a mechanic. He used a scan tool on it. He used said scan tool to unlock the tailgate.
Great I thought. The window opens and closes,and the tailgate now swings out, and down no problem with the tailgate switches.
I then had a great idea of trying the roof...bad idea actually.
The roof will open, and it will close.
Enter the new problem.
New problem:
When the roof is closed, if I try to close(roll up) the tailgate window, the DIC says close roof.
Well the roof is closed, the gmc thinks otherwise.
What we tried:
1. We tried to recalibrate the roof with the scan tool. It would start, the roof would start to open a little, and then close a little but it never returning to completly closed.
The scan tool said "not complete" on the calibration.
We tried this calibration with the roof started in the closed position, and in the open position. Same movement, same results.
2.Tried to recalibrate the tailgate window position. It seemed to complete HOWEVER, in the scan tool the " learned window open position is 649" it should be 0- 255.
The learned closed position is 26.
Also tried recalibrating the window in the closed and open positions, nothing changed.
So in short. Everything with the roof and tailgate is working mechanically.
Buuuut...there seems to be a problem with the roof thinking its still open, causing me to not be able to roll the tailgate window back up...without the scan tool forcing it up.
Any thoughts?
