Tamora Boot Release

[NJP]

Hi Guys
The electric boot release on my Tam has stopped working and I cannot get the roof out of the boot. It is pouring with rain!!!

Can anyone PM me the way to get in the boot without the electrics please?

Thanks

This is what this site is all about with some of the drivel on Ph nowadays, then someone is in trouble at 1 o`clock in the morning and 40 mins later he is hopefully sorted?

Thanks very much Pursyluv. Appreciate the help at silly o'clock in the morning.

Now I just need to figure out what has failed with the electrics!!!

It normally is the same fuse as the cigar lighter??

So if you've recently powered something from the lighter that goosed the fuse, it also stops the boot from working............got the tee shirt 8-((

If its not the fuse, check the door override button is not stuck or was pressed by mistake as this will inhibit the door buttons AND the boot until you lock/unlock the car.

If its not the fuse the ECU is in the PS footwell. Un-plugging it and reconnecting it should fire the boot solenoid, if it does the its the boot switch or the badge plinth that requires attention. If you need to access the switch or adjust the badge then look under the flap inside the boot, the 8mm nylons need to be removed or adjusted to access the switch.

No problem, the joys of working Saturday night possessions on the railway!!

Thanks for the continuing advice folks, it is appreciated.

The car didnt get too wet last night so hopefully with some sun and the dehumidifier it will dry out in no time. I thought I was going to have to bring the retrim up the priority list at one point!

I would appreciate the advice of any of the electrical gurus out there in the other post I am just about put up!
