M35 Tailgate Wont Open

[stagea alan]

Hi i've had my nm35 for a few months now & the tailgate wont open. I have to open the glass part & reach in to up it. I've been told i need this part. But the thing is im in the uk where there is not many m35 stagea's over here. any help would be great on getting the part i need.

It's the one with the part number 90500n

Will Nissan not get one in for you or do they want too much $$$ for it?

[stagea alan]

nissan want a arm & a leg for it.

This happened to me once. ended up being a blown fuse. I cant remember the exact location of this fuse, but the fuse boxes are located at drivers side foot area and in the engine bay in front and behind the battery. In case you don't, you can manually open the tailgate from the inside. there is a small panel that you can take off where the tailgate latch is, which will expose the latch. Goodluck

edit: ''In case you don't know...''

Also, another time i had a rag jammed in the mechanism and it behaved the same way.

the importer i used to get the stagea is fixing it & had it apart as they said it was the button that was't working put a new button in still not working. but have now sorted the part from nisswreck but spent a few hours last night email people on ebay to see if they had the part

here's my story.,, mine never opened i tried and tried and even the previous owner of my 2002 Stagea said its never opened its never worked id checked the fuses in the fuse box located next to drivers right foot and they were all fine so today i tried it again i simply unlocked the car (as you do) put my finger on that button pressed in and held the button and pushed with my other hand the glass inwards instead of just pulling and then it opened ! now it works!! it opened to my amazement and then i was hoping it would close again and it does so simple try it again ! might be your lucky day as it is mine

[stagea alan]

just had a go but no luck. i have the part now so im just waiting on the importer to have you the car in to fit the part

Had this issue as well. Replaced the fuse and that fixed it. Just cause the fuse isn't visiblyblown doesn't mean it's not dead. Try and replace fuse with new one.

[stagea alan]

do you know what fuse it is? as i have a bad hip & can't stay down to go though the fuse's one at a time.

Sorry I sold the car and can't remember. I think there is a fuse diagram behind the cover so you could just pull the cover and look at what it has.

if he could read Japanese

The translated fuse diagram is on here somewhere, but it isn't hard to work out from the pictures usually.

the fuse for the glass tailgate is a 10 amp and is located on the bottom right of the fuse box next to the drivers foot

i have got the translation for the fuse box in detail i will post

[2002stagea111]

mine never worked then i managed to open it 10+ times and know all of a sudden (after cyclone pam) my glass tailgate wont open again ., really annoying i tried taking of the plastic bit on the inside where the latch is and tried cleaning,drying everything compressed air to blow shit away but nothing works so i might replace the fuse and hope its just that., whats the story can u put a 15 amp fuse where a 10 amp should be ? would this benefit in any way

No. Unless you want burnt wires/burnt out car.
