Tourer boot release (not the switch)

[SlyFoxMatt]

Hi All,

I’m new to this group and I have a few bits on the insignia I’m having issues with.

The main issue is the tail gate won’t open, when I purchased the car a year ago the boot wouldn’t open but this was a switch issue, the boot opened with the key fob and button on the drivers door. (I have the auto boot option). I replaced the boot switch and all was working fine til about 2 month ago. Now the boot doesn’t open at all, this seems to be after an error flashed up on the sat nav screen, after plugging my phone in to charge... the boot just doesn’t open..

When I push the boot release switch the hazards flash as they normally do but the boot just doesn’t seem to un-latch. I believe I’ve checked the relevant fuses but all seem well. I can manually opened the boot with the release latch inside but other than climbing through the boot to open I have no other means of opening the boot. With a baby on the way I could really do with being able to access the boot externally 😂.

I haven’t had a serious look at all the components on the boot but before i go digging around I just wondered if anyone had the answers or areas I could check first!

Thank you all in advance

Matt
