Discovery Sport Boot / tailgate

Hi this relates to a 2015, Discovery Sport, 2.2 Hse Lux

Recently, my tailgate was replaced.. prior to this all tailgate opening methods were functioning as intended.

However, now they are not. It opens off the button on the key fob. However, after that the bootlid appears to not realise its open. When I press any of the methods that should close it, it tries to open more and beeps, rather than closing.

I usually have to manually close it.

I'm thinking the bootlid may need to be reset or 'relearned'..

I'm getting B124EE error code although it doesn't pinpoint what is at fault

Does anyone have any suggestions please? Low battery is not an issue, I have checked this

TIA, James

Presume you have self closing tailgate with powered struts ? These have anti trap feature to reduce accidents.
I'm guessing they are sensing an obstruction and reopening for safety.
Few things to check, make sure the tailgate seal is correctly fitted with no bulges or overlap.
Open the tailgate on the button and lift it up all the way giving a little push up at the end, and then again push it down by hand.
Don't force it either way but even pressure should guide it up/down.
Once in the closed position you should notice the cinch motor pull it in the last few Cm.
If this does not happen or tailgate still does not open you need to check connections inside the panel.

If your tailgate is not powered, then I just wasted my time !

Yeah its self closing with powered struts. Thats great, thank you for your reply. I'll try what you mention
