The boot wont open on my vw bora wen i push the botton on the boot nothing happens but it will open with the key????

  • Anonymous Jul 12, 2012

    hi,i have got a bora/jetta 2001 with the same problem,did you find out how to repair it? I took the actutator(solenoid) off and tested direct to 12v baterry and it worked but just getting a buzzing noise when fitted to the boot.Also i tested the handle(micro-switch) using a multi meter and it was fine! only thing i can think is that its a wiring problem or bad connection somewhere or something more simple hopefully...

My vw bora 1.6 sr 1999 wont lock by drivers door only lock from the boot

probably the door switch which senses if the drivers door is actually closed if the micro door switch is damaged then it is not seeing that the door is closed,check that out if not that you will need a vag scanner or something similar to get into the central locking module,let me know how you do peace

My 2001 vw bora's trunk won't open. Lock turns and key works with other doors, however when I try to open the trunk, it makes a noise as though trying to open but remains shut. I have 2 baby car seats in...

if you insert the key in the lock and turn it alittle further the boot should open.the noise you hear is the actuator moving,but the plastic rod to open the boot is probably brocken.

Vw bora central locking

I would check the electrical wiring connector that connects to the B Pillar (the structure between the front and back doors looking for a pinched wire. If you move the rummer boot around a bit I think you can get a pretty good look at the wires and you will be looking for one that might be dangling loose. If this sort of thing isn't really up your alley a trip to the dealer may be in order.
