Replaced electric tailgate motors but it won't open

Featured Replies

This is now the second time tailgate motor broke on my 2014 Combi. On the first time they were replaced in a dealership, and on the second time I replaced them with Deffner parts. They only lasted less than 4 years, and now I bought new ones from ebay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/206255408562

I just replaced the motors. Now the boot door stays open again, however it won't open nor close by the motor. The four cables should have been installed correctly. When I press the open/close button, the only result is just three quick beeps. I opened the door wide open and kept the close button down for a few seconds and the same beeps were heard, but that didn't help either.

Anything else I could try or do I need to find VCDS?
