Boot opening button not working - ideas?

[RichB]

As it was a nice day I took my Griff out for a good drive today (100 miles 'ish) only snag was that the boot opening button wouldn't work. Not a problem because many years ago I fitted one of David Beers (Mod-Wise) openers in the rear lamp unit which is a micro-reed switch triggered with a magnet in the key fob. This however proves the solenoid is working fine so it must either be the button on the dash or the wiring which has failed. Unless it's on a particular fuse but everything else seems to work fine. Anyone got any ideas?

Humm that's what I'm thinking too, guess that means lifting the dash off.

Thanks David, I'll take a look. You well?

Thanks chaps...

Rich, my boot solenoid burnt itself out when the button got stuck down. Twice.

Thanks but it's not the solenoid - the alternative micro switch opens it.
