Boot won't open! RS265

  1. Hi there,

    My boot has stopped opening, neither key nor the button on the door will release it.

    I'm new to the Mégane and just wondering if this is a common issue, could it be seized? Any tips for opening?

    Thank you :smile:

    There isn't a key in the boot lock.
    Its a common fault, they fill with water and corrode the contacts.
    Prize the button unit out, pull the plug out of the switch and short the two connectors, that should release the boot lid.

    you need the car to be unlocked
     

  3. Sorry, I mean the boot button on the key cards don't work.
    I'll give that a go, thank you

  5. Haha! Yeah, little pic of a car with the boot open. Surely that means boot lid, right?!

  8. The boot can be opened from the inside, you need a small screwdriver. Cimb into the boot vis the rear seat, you'll see a rainbow shaped slot at the bottom. inside this slot is a white catch. use the screwdriver to open the boot. I've not done this on a mk3. However I do have access to one. It the same as the mk2. and that work's.
