Boot Problems

[wrobb]

Hi All

I have an issue my boot which does not close/lock. All the other doors work fine from remote FOB and manually however the boot won't close. I can hear the lock snapping into place when lock / unlock is pressed on the fob. The problem started after the car was left for a couple of months and Battery died .

I have replaced the Battery and all seems well but still have the boot issue. Any help or pointers?

Thanks

hi, is your boot lock in the horizontal or vertical position? try both positions and see what happens.

if the boot won't close then it sounds to me like the lock on the boot lid has closed while the boot was open

happened to me once when I slammed the boot shut, I was parked near some bushes and a branch was sticking into the boot when it was open, so when I slammed it it locked on the branch and not on the hook, so I took the branch out and closed it and it wouldn't shut, just forced the open latch open by hand (didn't take much effort) altho thinking back, try just stickin the key in the boot lock, and turning it to 'open' and then closing the boot

also when u press the lock/unlock buttons on the fob they don't lock and unlock the boot anyway
