Manual way to open my boot? Magane II - 2006

Postby Xarragh » Tue Jul 23, 2019 8:25 am

Is there another way to open the boot. I think the solenoid is jammed or deaf to electric signals.

Thanks in advance, ill take all random suggestions.

There is a way you have to get in the boot and there is a small slot in the lock cover in which you insert a very small screwdriver or something similar and move the white bar left or right I cannot remember,
On my hatchback model the slot about 1.5cm long and 5 mm wide is on the LEFT of the lock it is sometimes difficult to see because of the plastic panel covering the boot lid partially cover the slot.
I personally have already installed a piece of thin wire taped to the Plastic panel so if similar happens to yourself I just pull the wire and tailgate can be opened

Hi & Thanks.

I had a look at this from the inside, however i cant locate same. Is the action with the screwdriver a clockwise/anticlockwise turn or a lift/lower or a pushing action? there appears to be a soft cover on the mechanism in places.

Thanks

The slot can be hard to see as I said I have to lift the plastic panel slightly to see the slot on the left of the lock.
Inside the slot is a white bar this is where you insert the very small screwdriver or something similar and slide it to the left .
The slot and bar are very small so difficult to see.

Thankyou so much! Got to it. Checked all the wiring with a volt meter. The switch was full of water.
Many thanks
