Tailgate cable seems jammed
You can disconnect the cable stay on either side pretty easy. There is just a clip to release down at the ball on the tailgate. Release the bad one and the tailgate should drop down. You can get buy with only one side as long as you don't put anything to heavy on the disconnected side. -

Tailgate cable seems jammed
I Think he is talking about the spooling cable stay on either side of the tailgate, not the cable that opens the latch. You will need to replace the spooler stay about a $40 part from rover parts west. -

Park Brake fault
Get it adjusted or do it yourself, I had that and all my shops said the actuator needed replacing. I decided to adjust it myself using Bodsey's brake bible and it went away. Worth the try. -
