Out of the blue the rear power liftgate/hatch stopped working. I tried opening it with all the button and also the remote. There is no sound of the actuator(?) attempting to open the latch. Can anyone provide some guidance on what to check? I can take it to the dealership if needed but didn't know if there were some easy things to check in case it's something simple. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Is there any way to check to see if this is the problem before I replace it? Or is this the problem 99% of the time?

This. Just replace it. It's only a matter of time until other stuff stops working. It's only $25 and 20 minutes of your time.

You can check by removing the Harness Rubber boot in the door and see if there isn´t any peeled off cables.
