I bought this kit from Aliexpress, have installed it, love it, but I have one problem.

There are 3 open close buttons – the tailgate VW emblem, a switch on the steering column, and the switch on the lip of the tailgate. He switches all work correctly


I should be able to open and close the tailgate with my fob, but it will only close and not open.


My car is a USA 2021 GTI. Later models such as this you are required to tap into the can bus wiring. That got me as far as being able to close the tailgate when open.


The lights on the car blink in recognition of the pushing the tailgate button on the fob.

I'm hoping that someone as installed one of these kits in can give me some guidance.


It seems to me that, if the tailgate can be closed with a fob, it should also open because the function is electrical toggle. I'm wondering if the controller may be defective
