Hello.
I wonder if you could help me again please.
My boot keeps opening on its own. I have had a flat battery twice now and have had to get recovery out. I assume the two are linked.
I have not been using the car a lot though, so does a flat battery make the boot open perhaps as opposed to the other way around!?
As a temporary fix, I have been told to remove the fuse for the tailgate so it stays shut.
Can you tell me where this is please, as I am struggling to find it!
Any further advice on the boot problem would be much appreciated obviously also.
I have bought a new battery to fit, but I am reluctant to do this unless and until the problem is resolved.
Thank you.
Regards,
Steven.

It's probably the tailgate switch, see here: https://www.freel2.com/forum/topic6143.html

Thank you!
Any ideas where the fuse is please?
Thanks.

Tailgate/fuel cap fuse is F25, which is under the glove box. It's 10amp. 2007 TD4 HSE

Thank you, but is there more than one 10amp - how do you know which one it is please as they do not appear to be referenced when I have looked in there? Thanks

Isn’t there a schematic under the plastic lid ?

No - not that I can see - I was expecting them to be referenced so you know which one it is? There is no plastic lid when I have removed the glove box? My boot is still opening all the time - help please! 😡😄 Thank you! 👍

Thank you for your help - I know very little about cars and I appreciate your time! 👍

That’s what this place is for good luck with it

I had those issues but wanted it sorted before it got to the unlocking stage as my dog goes in the back he’s a big old sod and it wouldn’t take much for him to end up out of it.I got my tailgate switch from a member on here it’s so’s easy to do but it’s worth getting some of the plastic panel clips beforehand eBay is good for these and when taking the boot door panel off it’s good to have someone hold the actual door for you and give it a good hard tug.

Thank you! 👍
