400H Rear Power Door

[AndyPC]

As a recent new owner of a 57 plate 400h I am slowly getting used to it. The rear power door works fine from either the internal button or the one on the door but not from the key fob. According to the manual this is something that can be changed but it doesn't seem to say how. Is it a dealer job or is there a way of activating it myself?

Cheers

Hi Andy

You do have to press and hold the button for about a second for it to work. Have you tried that or are you just pressing like the door lock/unlock buttons?

Hi Colin

Brilliant, thanks – works fine now. :) Patience never was my strongest virtue !

You are:

1. Unlocking the doors first (by pressing the 'Unlock' button on the remote)...then....

2. Pressing and holding the 'Pwr Door' button on the remote for around 1.5 seconds until you hear the beep from the vehicle?

Failure to follow the procedure above will not activate the power door function.

When I got my Rx power door did not work. Somebody had previous turn it off from the button hidden in the glove box. Owner's manual has mentioned it but as usually, didn't read it.
