Hi guys!

Right I have a problem with my ST, the inside button to open the boot doesn't work, neither does the button on my keys work to open it. I'm just wondering what the fix is for this, I'm quite confident to work on it so your help much appreciated.

Anybody else had this problem?

Boyde

I'd say fuse too

Does it make the sound when you press it?

Lift the boot a bit and press the button.

The catch might be stuck...

I'm sure the cherry play stuff I bought earlier will do the job! Cheers
