Hi all,
Went to lock my boot and it just isn't budging at all. My key plastic is cracked so I don't want to give it too much welly. Any ideas of what to do?
I did search btw.
Also its a 2001 pre-plex so no central locking.
Thanks
Jordan

Spray some WD40 in the lock and see if that frees it up.
Checked the latch on the boot to make sure nothing is jamming it and have you taken the black plastic cover off the tailgate to have a look?

See if the boot latch has slipped down. If it has it won't lock when you shut it. Easy to sort just undo bolt, lift up and tighten
