Boot Lock Failure

[Guest Joanne Hancock]

Hi,

 

Me and my family have bought a 1 previous owner Pluriel and have had a re-occurring problem with the boot licking system. The first time it just went back to the garage but now I'm beginning to wonder........

 

A crack has appeared in the rubber push button and it no longer opens the boot.

 

Has anyone else had this problem?

 

Is it a known issue?

 

Could it be a fuse that's gone? And which one is it? (No mention in the manual)

 

Any help would be greatly received.

Jo,

 

I had a crack appear on my boot release button within months of buying the car. I had no problems opening the boot & Citroen replaced it under warranty. My car is now more than 4 years old and I have to admit I have had no repeat of the problem & at no time have I had any issues with the boot release.

 

Sorry I can't be any further help.

hi,

I have a Pluriel which is 2 years old.

Just yesterday when I tried to open the boot it stuck and I cant get into it at all. I rung the garage and they seem to think there may be something wrong with the computer part of the car. It will cost approx £40 to test the computer and then whatever parts it needs on top of that. Bearing in mind I have just paid last week over £200 for a service I feel this isnt on!

My last Pluriel leaked until they changed the seals. Why did I buy another I hear you ask????I just love them.

I hope someone has some solution to my problem.

check that the folding roof is fully closed - if it's already in the closed position just push the roof switch in and see if the canopy moves forward - this may get the boot lock to work again
