Default TD5 Rear Tailgate won't open
Hi
Fitted a new actuator to the tailgate lock which now pops the lock button. But the door still won't open.
How do you open the door to see what may be causing the latch not to release?
Ready to pop myself

Pop off the rear LR emblem with your key and spray the latch mechanism with silicon spray. You may need to force the handle up a bit to get it to latch the first time.
