My tailgate sensor light wont go off. I have opened and closed my tailgate and tailgate window but the warning light will not go off which is cause all the dome lights to stay on in the jeep. please help

Possibly yes. usually anything to do with the mechanisms involved when you close either a door or a tailgate will trigger the warning light. Some vehicles with a split tailgate will have separate sensor for each half so the vehicle electronics sees it as 2 doors and triggers the light if on, the other or both are open.

Sounds like a bad switch on the tailgate. Open your tailgate and look for a switch. When you find it...press it in completely and see if the sensor light goes off. If so, replace it.

There are micro switches in the tailgate called tailgate ajar sensors, they are attached to the tailgate latch, one or both of them is defective.

Sound like your tail gate switch has failed or maybe a fuse

I would take these actions :

1. Check fuses
2. Replace Tailgate switch
3. Take to Auto electrician as it could be a short in your wiring harness.

Hope this helps

check for proper operation of the tailgate sensor is any where around the tailgate
the tailgate should close all the way if not the message will be there even you change the sensor

put the doorlocks on the side of your tailgate into the locked position, then you will be able to retract the window. Once that is done, grab a screwdriver and unlock those locks so you can close the tailgate.

I have a similar problem, my tailgate stopped working with the outside handle and the remote but can be opened manually from the inside. I don't have an alarm so there is no problem with that but did you get a solution for the tailgate problem that I could try?

The indicator light is turned on and off when the door depresses a black button in the door jam. Similarly there's a button on the rear tailgate and rear window.
Try opening the tail gate and closeing it firmly. Do the same with the rear window.
If all these fail to operate the warning light properly the most likely problem is a short circuit. You should have this fixed ASAP as it will drain your battery.

The contacts of the sensor to the Door can be dirty. Thus it can't sense the door properly and remarking open. Also there is a solenoid behind the Door which can be defective which can cause the problem. Kindly call a technician and check the parts.
Thank you Sir, Have a nice day.

The micro-switch is fitted inthe lock of the tailgate.Try opening the tailgate and manually close the lock and see if the boot light and the dash indicater light go off,if not,replace boot lock.If the lights go off,tailgate not closing properly,adjust the boot lock catch.Good luck
