The latch on the tailgate of our 2006 Chevy truck is stuck in the open position. When we pull on the handle in the tailgate it is loose like when you open the tailgate.
There are little metal rods that connect to the handle of the tailgate, just like the rods that connect your door handles to the door hinges and lock mechanism. just pop off the plastic cover over the tailgate handle and check and see if the rods are still connected to the handle.
I closed the tail gate on my 2006 chevy 1500 seril pick-up truck and now it does'nt open
Pull the black plastic plate from arond the handle stuck with double sided tape. The rod that was attached to the handle will be lose inside hard to get to (the connector is made of plastic) . Take both peces to a auto parts house ask for carberator link clips usally in the Help section.Replace both clips while you ars at it, you won't have to do it all over again like i did.
