Can you hear the 'click' for it to release? If not, check fuses. If so, open with key and check the release

mr fortech apart from tailgate prob in you opinion will the gem carry on with other functions or is it likley to expire completely i take it that to be replaced it would have to be done at a garage?

The GEM usually operates everything else as normal when the boot release goes down, and yes it needs to be programmed when replaced. Check the number on the side and have a squint here;
