    If my tailgate won’t open, how do I get it up so that I can replace those struts?

    As long as you have some power in the car (working battery) you can unlock the trunk manually and lift it up manually all the way. The struts are stiff but will give way when you apply it with some pressure.

    Hey! So how would I know that the problem is in the electrical tailgate?

    If you hear a clicking noise when the switch is activated. Or if it goes dead completely.
