If your problem is corrosion - our 88 745 GLE had the flap that covers the key hole allow it to get badly corroded inside.

I removed the inner panel from the tailgate and removed the lock.

Then I cleaned all the parts and discarded the lock cylinder - the electrical portion worked after the bad parts were gone,

I then attached metal disc (aka - a penny) over the key slot.
