#1: Boot does not open Strangely? Author: very_452001, Location: BirminghamPosted: Mon Dec 16, 2013 6:53 pm ---- After driving on the motorway yesterday for about 90 mins and after arriving at my destination I notice boot did not open except all 4 doors that did open. Checked remote cental locking and key however boot did not open.
Strangely after doing the return journey back and arrived home the boot did open.
Car is 206 1.4 8v TU3A Engine 2006 Verve.
What caused this problem?

My key's battery is on it's last legs, so could be related to that? Last edited by DSWR on Tue Dec 17, 2013 9:25 pm; edited 1 time in total

I've had to close it down, get in the boot from the back seats and undo the latch rod to make it safe......won't UNDO now....full stop. New actuator needed I think. I hope you get yours sorted.

I can't see why the boot-lock motor would care if the keyfob battery was weak?
This would just give reduced range and missed codes/

Could be something very simple like a dodgy clip.
