Hi All
Someone slammed rear door and the closer stopped working. Door opens and closes fine but the motor has stopped its gripping action so rear hatch rattles over bumps. I have taken it out and have the horrible thing sitting on my table. I am looking to see switches to clean and other things to fix. How do I test it and any hints on where any problems might be?? I can already see what a ball-ache it will be to get back in so I want to do more than just spray switch cleaner & silicone at it...
Have seen one on ebay for £80 but keen to fix this one...
Thanks and Happy Christmas

2 pics: one of lock from inside the hatch (Hatch fully open, hinges on left of pic) showing the linkages and one with the lock removed and sitting on a piece of wrapping paper!
