DannyNCC Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 Controls the systems related to body such as door locks and other stuff Not a cheap part to just try though Is there any water any where in the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haggis Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 Has it had a windscreen fitted I've had water leaks into conectors under dashboard causing weird faults like that. Only an idea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the poacher Posted October 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 the only thing I can say is my boot alarm is going off all the time its saying boot open but when I stop and check the boot is shut ? its an intermittent problem ......would that have anything to do with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyNCC Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 Sounds like a boot lock switch or mech More than likely related Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beerdeor Posted October 25, 2013 Report Share Posted October 25, 2013 from a independent mechanics point of view boot catches are a common problem on the festers kinda points to it given the fact you slammed the tailgate and its fixed,,,,,,for now seems like a logical place to start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
