No not a daft question I have not tried that yet but will first thing tomorrow.
It is both rear doors by the way, sometimes they work but mostly not.
Only 4 months out of warranty as well.

I noticed with mine the door wouldn't open in really sunny weather. I guessed something must have been expanding in the heat. I squirted some lithium grease around the latch and spent a good ten minutes opening and closing the door. Its been fine all week now. I don't know if this is the same as yours but I could hear the motors working when pressing the fob, mine must have just been sticking. Black MY2013 SD4 GS Auto, Wood Company Armrest, Freel2 sticker.
Gone MY2010 Freelander 2 Manual TD4.e S, Alaska White.

Is there an easy way to test if its the solenoid or some thing else with out stripping it?

Rear door locks fine but wont open.

Watching the latch from the seat it seems to struggle compaired to the working one.
