http://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/979660-2008-limited-rear-power- liftgate-wont-function.html -- this guy had a similar issue and it turned out that his factory battery was no longer strong enough to operate the gate. The battery would start his vehicle and everything else would work but not the lift gate. He replaced the battery and lift gate started operating normally.
