S60 boot lock
My boot won’t open on the fob or when you press the release handle the only way is with the key. This is a bit of a pain but at least I have access. When I press the fob I can hear the relay clicking but not the wind you get on the release operation . Now I watched I few vids on you tube and everyone had a different solution to their problem ie: frayed wires, locking release spring and the sensor on the boot release broken.
Anyone had similar problems and what was the result. I will be looking myself at these solutions , just a bit busy at moment , so any help would be appreciated. |

When you lock the car, do the indicators flash as normal?

Yes central locking works as normal but boot won’t open. There’s no whirring sound on boot when you press the fob just the relay 2 clicks very low.

I guess you'll need to get to the plug associated with the latch mechanism and try to get some voltage readings.
Also check if there's a separate fuse associated with just the boot.

Almost certainly a broken wire in the loom that feeds over the hinge. When the boot is open it makes contact, when closed the cable is stretched a bit and contact is broken. A first easy check is to attach a temporary supplementary earth lead to the lock mechanism and see if it all works again. If it isn't the earth find out which wire carries the supply and check that.
