This happened to me about 5 weeks ago and lasted a week, as soon as I hit the Start/Stop button, you heard the boot unlock itself! You would have to get out, shut boot and off you went. After a week, it stopped and hasn't happened since! Glad I wasn't the only one with a mad boot!!!

hi mate,your boot switch has water in it.
i had the same problem.What i did was take the switch out(just prise it out carefully)took the top off,dried it wth a hairdryer,sealed the top back on with super glue and some sealent and hey presto!!!Good as new and will never leak again.(the switch is the one under the boot lip not the one in the badge)
