Is there a way to get the boot open when the button does not work?

My roof is currently in there…..of course.

All good. Thanks for the advice. I have owned the car for 23 years and I didn’t know about that.🙄

Do share.

Corroded connections?

Usually its the boot release solenoid. They can burn out quickly if the boot button on the dash is on to long. Jammed perhaps.

New solenoids aren't expensive and not hard to change.
