Re: 6r 5 door petrol boot won't open

If the boot light works, the switches on F256 lock "supposedly" work, first focus your attention on the violet/white wire running from E234 handle to BCM T73a/23 -> black connector, and Earth brown wires. Do you have any diagnostic tools? VCDS? Have you made any changes to the BCM coding?...

Re: 6r 5 door petrol boot won't open

Does the boot light illuminate and does the third brake light work? I believe both are still working. Yes, the switch is part of the emblem-set. I suppose that with a multimeter and the diagram you can check the continuity of the wires. Yeah that's true I guess but it's sort of getting to the limit...

Re: 6r 5 door petrol boot won't open

Hi thanks for responding, would this have not been replaced when I changed the whole handle? Or is it a separate thing?

6r 5 door petrol boot won't open

Hello, I've been having boot issues for a while now, it used to work fine but it's slowly got less reliable and now it doesn't work at all. I have tried replacing the latch, tried replacing the badge/handle and I've pulled the rubber away where the boot hinges and can't see any broken wires. I've al...

Have replaced the lock, but completely dead now. I assume there is a fuse, but cannot find it recorded on the overv...
