370Z Automatic Tailgate Hall Sensor Fault

Hey, I'm having a weird issue with my 2019 Nissan 370Z (gasoline engine). The automatic tailgate keeps throwing an error and won't fully open. I scanned it and it's showing a hall sensor fault. I've checked the wiring as best I can, and the plug seems okay, but honestly, vehicle sensors aren't really my strong suit. Anyone else run into something similar?

A 2019 Nissan 370Z owner experienced an issue with the automatic tailgate not fully opening due to a hall sensor fault. After checking the wiring and plug without finding any obvious issues, it was suggested that the problem might be a defective cable or plug connection. Upon taking the vehicle to a workshop, it was confirmed that a defective cable was the cause, and after replacement and sensor calibration, the issue was resolved.

Did this summary help you solve your problem?

I had a similar issue on my old BMW 5 series, although it was the trunk. Sounds like a defective cable or plug connection of the component. Have you tried checking the sensor wiring for any obvious damage?

Thanks for the tip! When you say obvious damage, what exactly am I looking for? Is there a specific area of the sensor wiring that's more prone to issues, or a way to test the connection?

With the BMW, the wire loom going to the trunk lid had cracked from being flexed every time the trunk opened and closed. I suggest going to the workshop.

Took it to the shop as you suggested. Turns out it was indeed a defective cable. They replaced it and did some sensor calibration. Cost me 95€, but at least it's fixed! Thanks for the help!
