- If you are having issues with your tailgate not opening on command or sounds like it’s trying but won’t, it’s the actuator.
Most of these trucks have an extended warrantee on the actuator but my dealer was too far out so I did it myself.
You can send in the receipt to @Ford Motor Company and they will reimburse you for the part.

Omg what a refreshing video this was. No twenty minutes plus describing how you were at the grocery store and you bought some cantaloupes and spaghetti and how you mother in law thought the color of the truck is wrong and so on followed by 15 seconds just replace that part. You’re my hero thanks for a straight to the point this is how you solve this issue. Two thumbs up.
LOLOL
My $75,000 Ford Platinum F-150 '21 is doing the exact same thing! Thanks for posting and helping me solve one of the multiple problems with this OVERPRICED POS! Ford should pay you and many UA-camrs for helping keep their POS trucks on the road!
Just got a new to me truck and no issues for the last 2 weeks then all of a sudden. Glad that there is a fix and thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much for this video. Tailgate has been doing this for what seems forever. Literally took 3 mins to fix! Thanks again!
I just ordered mine. Thank you for showing me how it’s done. I’ll have my tailgate fixed in a few days.
Great video! Thanks for posting. The tailgate actuator on my truck wouldn’t release the tailgate latches so that’s exactly what I needed to do.
The three master connector bundles up under the left rear of the box need to have the contacts cleaned of corrosion and lubricated with conductive grease. In fact any electrical connectors for the tailgate assembly needs the same maintenance preformed. F150s have a hundred or so connectors in the various harness looms exposed to the elements that should be addressed.
Thanks dude. My f150 2018 is also not working.
I ordered a replacement from Amazon today to fix my 2017 Ford F150 Platinum with 15,000 miles, kept in the garage, and never drive in the rain.
Can't thank you enough for posting this video. Super helpful and I was able to fix my tailgate...Yut
Great video. Easy 5 minute replacement. 👍🏼
Thanks dude. I have the exact problem and tried the exact same things, but to no avail. I'll get the actuator.
Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for sharing!
Great video helped out a lot boss just change mine and working like new 😊
I tried to call on the recall and this guy told me they are only replacing wire harnesses for the tailgate unlatching issue. I’ll just knock it out like you did.
Thanks for the video! Just got A 2016 f150 platinum a couple weeks ago and my tailgate stopped working.
Sucks to have that happen right after you buy it. Classic 😂
2015 F150 King Ranch Edition --- Okay - checked all the power tailgate fuses yesterday - all good but replace anyway. Rec'd new tailgate actuator this morning from Amazon. Installed - AND - still not working! Key fob batteries are brand new. HELP.....
Thank you sir
Just curious has anyone took it to a dealership under warranty
My 2016 is doing this exact thing! It’s annoying!
My 2016 tailgate will not open, have a hard tonneau cover , how do I get to the actuator ?
My 2015 Lariat tailgate opens using remote but dosent open when hitting the button.
Im having the same issue right now, howd you fix it? Gotta swap out the actuator see if thst does anything
I’m about to replace my button, dont see how it could be anything else since fob and button inside truck still works to open
@@d4sythe01i tried that too, it didn’t work for some reason the harness in the tailgate is getting power to everything but the button so im gonna try that end piece of the harness next
Got the same problem. Anyone figure it out? Tried to change the actuator. No luck. Still just the fob working. No button working.
Mine is doing the same thing 18 lariat
$75000 POS ? Really? My truck is 2015 lariat and has been a great truck, 150000 and still going strong. 🤷🏻♂️
Would this actuator work for an f250 also?
Anyone actually have luck getting reimbursed from Ford hahah ill be shocked if they do
