trtaylor Posted 14 hours ago Report Share Posted 14 hours ago First, I know there have been many posts in this forum regarding power liftgate malfunctions. But I have narrowed my issue down to a specific scenario. My vehicle is a 2017 Edge Titanium. The power liftgate will operate normally when the car is cool. It will operate repeatedly early in the morning. And it will operate later in the evening when the sun has gone down and the vehicle has cooled off. But during the day when the vehicle is warm from the sun, the power liftgate will not operate. For instance, today the liftgate operated when I got up. Now it is 5pm in the afternoon and the vehicle is warm from sitting in the 70 degree sun all day. And the liftgate will not operate. But it will this evening after it cools off. Do any techs here know where to look for the problem? I have installed a new battery, making sure the connections at the battery and the ground at the fenderwell were wirebrushed clean. I was hoping that was the issue. But it was not. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omar302 Posted 43 minutes ago Report Share Posted 43 minutes ago What happens when you press the liftgate button? Can you still lift it manually? I would suspect it is a failing lift motor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
