Anyone have an idea why when I press the boot lid unlock button on the remote pad, it does not work? All other remote functions are OK.

Also does the LED on the remote come on when pressed. First thing I would be looking at would be the dash button, then the battery in the remote, and finally the connections internally. Something could have disconnected meaning there is no continuity in the remote for that button. Something may need to be re-soldered.

I had that just recently. Boot button wouldn't open. But I could still lock the car like a charm. I opened the unit, pulled the battery out, put it back in, resealed it... and she worked like a charm.

Cheers, guys. Yes the boot button on the dash does work. I will try the battery in the remote. Either replace battery or examine connections.

The rear boot has a solenoid like a central locking one only much bigger. Does the boot open when you press the physical switch on the dash board? If not check the fuses.If the fuses are ok then remove the boot trim and make sure the solenoid has a good earth.

check your wires from boot foward, sounds like an unpluged harness somewhere if both are out
