Car boot jammed

[tvrclank]

No problems with boot until this morning- cerbera badge pressed and all you hear is a click! It doesn't open with manual help either.

Is it kept outside??
Wounder if its iced to the seals or something?

get some warm water from the tap and poor it down the rear window so it will go around the seal abit.

Can you hear the solenoid moving or also a click of the catch undoing? If the former then your cable may have come loose. You will need to adopt the secret method (which I hope will not be posted on here and is avail to known owners).

Sounds like something is frozen in the closed position

Oh no please don't say that !!! I'm going to pick mine up tomorrow afternoon From where it's kept and am really hoping that i can get into it !

I had exactly the same thing earlier this year, it turned out to be the cable had snapped from the solenoid to the boot catch.

Kev, i couldn't open mine today, but then i don't know how to, i need to fill up in the next couple of days so is it press the bottom of the badge, top of the badge, middle of the badge and yes i'll admit it, i'm a complete amateur

All fixed- it was shorting out and somehow caused it to be very weak. <removed>. Why don't TVRs come with manuals?

Mod: Don't publish that info thanks.
