Question type: General

I have a 2016 Ford Explorer and the back door will not open.  The light goes on
that my "Liftgate is open" but I trying using my FOB Key and it won't do
anything. I also cannot open it manually?  Does anyone know the fix?  It was
working fine this entire time.

Look around on your dash. There is usually a switch there somewhere that will open the lift gate.
