examined to find out why water was leaking in on one side of the tailgate, turns out one of the main harness is compressed into the rubber, leaving indents,,the other side is not, so looks like that is the issue...I salavaged a good rear seal from a wreck so hopefully that will solve the issue, with the cable relocated
need to remove liftgate for another job...how/where do I disconnect the harnesses?
FSM just says remove them,,presumably take out inner panel, disconnect inside and pull up all cables?
the reason the tailgate must be removed is there is a line of rust where the roof seam joins the rear section..it has now holed in one place, so looks like a patch may need to be fabbed and welded in, repaint etc
