Tiida Tailgate Sensor Fault

My 2010 Nissan Tiida with a gasoline engine has 156936 km. I'm getting an error and the tailgate doesn't open completely. I suspect it's the electrical sensor, maybe a hall sensor fault. I checked the wiring, but I don't know how to diagnose it further. Is this a known issue?

A 2010 Nissan Tiida is experiencing a tailgate issue where it doesn't open completely, suspected to be caused by a faulty electrical sensor, possibly a hall sensor. The wiring has been checked, but further diagnosis is needed. It is suggested to inspect the plug connection for corrosion or looseness and use a multimeter to check voltage and signal. However, due to the complexity and risk of causing further damage, consulting a professional is recommended.

Sounds like a tailgate hall sensor fault. Those things are notorious. You checked the wiring, good, but did you look at the plug connection? Sometimes they corrode or loosen. If the connection is good, the sensor might be bad. You'll need a multimeter to check the voltage and signal. If you aren't familiar with electrical work, it might be best to leave it to a professional, you could make things worse.

When you say check the voltage and signal, what specific values should I look for? I have a multimeter, but I don't know the expected readings for a working hall sensor.

Providing specific voltage values is hard without the exact wiring diagram. Even with the diagram, poking around with a multimeter without experience can cause more issues. Given your description, the error code, and the symptoms, it points to the sensor or wiring. Honestly, to avoid frying something, I recommend taking it to a workshop.

Thanks for the advice. I'll schedule an appointment. The estimated repair cost is about 95€, which seems reasonable. I appreciate your time.
