C3 Tailgate Hall Sensor Issue

Citroen C3 (2012 diesel) owners, tailgate's acting up. Error's stored, and it refuses to open fully. Betting on the hall sensor, given the mileage (221591 km). Suspect wiring or a faulty plug. Anyone else seen this?

I had something similar with my C3. Tailgate was being a pain, acting like it was jammed. Didn't throw an error code initially, but eventually it did. Is yours intermittent, or constant?

Good to know I'm not alone! It's pretty constant now, sadly. Initially, it was intermittent. Did you ever figure out exactly what it was?

Mine was a faulty sensor connection in the end. It kept getting worse until it failed completely. Honestly, I'd just take it to a workshop. Saved me a lot of headache.

Workshop it is, then. It was exactly as you said – dodgy sensor connection. Cost me 95€ to sort. Thanks for the nudge!
