UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

hi,

jumped into my car this morning and noticed that the light on the dash to say the boot is open was flickering then going
solid from time to time checked the boot and it was closed?!?!? checked that anything was stuck in the boot lid but nothing
has anyone come accross this before????

This happens so often try searching lol!

Its due to moisture in the boot microswitch. Spray some WD40 into the boot lock mechanism and the problem should go away. If it doesnt, youll need a new microswitch which is about £12 from the dealers.

cheers mate ill try the wd 40 got worried about it thought it might of been an electrical fault = MONEY
