Title: Do i have an issue with the boot lock?
Post by: jaycue2u on July 25, 2011, 09:48:31 pm

Hi all,

Just a quick one. Im not sure if i do have an issue, but i seem to have to press the unlock button on the key fob 3 times before the boot unlocks, is this normal? If not any idea what it is, or how i can rectify it

Thanks in advance  :happy2:

i think you need to hold it down for 2 seconds if the rest of the car is locked, - maybe 3 presses = 2 seconds??

unlock the car (all doors) then press the boot unlock button, see if that makes a change...

yes i had the same issue until i read the manual - you need to hold down the boot unlock button until you see the indicators flash and then it's open without opening the rest of the car  :happy2:
