rear hatch 530 E60 touring

Hi, the small hatch on my 06 touring has started popping open, I had this on my 3 series so I disconnected the wires above where they go intoned rear screen, because they were shorting. Is this the same on the 5series

Could be although the rear window switch is a very common failure on these.

Mine started doing this at the end of the last year. As soon as I started the engine the glass top would open, so annoying! It was the microswitch in the release button, done under warranty, but I believe the part is about £25.
