After a session with poor boys 👀

Very nice !!!!

Thats looking excellent, well worth the effort you put in.

Hello and welcome to you.

Hello Phil, Pleased it’s fixed and we were on the right line. Even better when folks take the trouble to report back. Unfortunately, it seems that follow up is rare and the thread remains open and of little use to anyone with similar issues in the future. Many thanks for letting us know Phil. Crimp connections!! Being old (fashioned) I have an inherent distrust/dislike of this form of connection - just too many instances of dodgy connections, despite having the correct crimping tool. Kind regards, Gareth.

Hello Phil, With all these electrical issues associated with the boot area, my first port of call would be examine the harness in the flexible section that runs from the body into the tailgate. This tends to get a hammering due to regular opening and closing of the boot, which leads to some of the cables actually snapping. Kind regards, Gareth. p.s. If you suspect you have earth issues then just run a temporary lead from a good earth point in the luggage compartment to a similar good earthing point on the tailgate.

If all the faults are at the rear of the car perhaps there is a damaged earth wire in the boot. Although the fuses are fine have you checked the relay for the boot lock?
