Continuing tailgate electrical problem

As some might remember I have a problem with my upper tailgate that sometimes opens and sometimes not. All mechanical parts are changed i.e. outside door handle, catch with cable and also I have a new actuator.
When the door opened a while ago I modified it a little and now the actuator is ductaped on the inside off the door so if it doesn't work I can open it manually by hanging over the rear seats.

I have to admit this works quit well as I can open the door now always or electronalickly or manual. Whistle

But still I prefer it to be the normal way always. I have been playing with my multimeter again today and I notice that the actuator only gets power very short. If it works I get about 10V on my multimeter but other times only 2 V max.

So I think I might be a relay that isn't happy. So my question does anyone has a electrical schematic from the reardoor system? And doesanyone know if there is a relay fitted somewhere and where I can find it?

Thanks Roel

Have been to the dealer today they found a chaving wire on the seat frame. Shocked This should be the problem they think. At least the mechanic is sure about it. Rolling Eyes
I leave my modification in-tact for a few more weeks just to be sure.
It will probably OK till somewhere end off July when I have the dogguard in again and all the camping gear loaded so I can't get to the inside anymore. Big Cry Roel
