6r 5 door petrol boot won't open

[SilverPolo6R]

Hi all,

I was wondering if you found the cause @Dyslexia6R? I am facing the same issue currently.

Many thanks!

Hi

Having the same issue. I'd just like to comfirm something.

When testing for continuity on the emblem/handle this should beep on my multimeter indicating continuity, I don't need to open the handle whilst testing(current should still pass)?

I'm finding neither the original part or the second hand replacement "beep".

when you pull the handle to open the lid, it should beep. (one lead of multimeter on pin 1 of emblem other lead of multimeter on pin 2 of emblem).


If it beeps while the emblem is closed its not ok

You can connect the battery , disconnect the lid button from the loom and use a paperclip to bridge the two pins on the loom and see if that will pop the trunk. if this happens the lid button is faulty
