Has anyone had their hands-free tailgate operation cease working, ie the bit where you kick your foot under the rear bumper to unlock and open the tailgate?

Ours was working well until recently but has suddenly ceased operating. I understood there was a a possibility of this happening if a towbar was fitted but although our car has said towbar, the function continued to operate well, even occasionally whilst bending down underneath the rear of the car in order to see where to clip the trailer safety cable.

Have tried turning the function off and back on, on the dashboard display, but no go. Wondered whether its worth disconnecting and reconnecting battery to possibly reset?

When I waggle my leg appropriately I fall over so I don't use that method any more!
