Boot lock, locked

Post by sproggy29 » Wed Aug 06, 2014 7:07 am

Morning my fellow travellers,

Quick question.... over the weekend I was detailing the interior with my trusty toothbrush and mr sheen and happened upon the dirty little key lock for the boot. After giving it a right good going over I thought I might see if it worked, this was a dumb thing to do as now I cannot unlock it..... :cry:

Anyone know how to unlock it again?

The one in the drivers footwell? Probably just stuck or got some crap stuck in the barrel. take the cover off (lift a flap on the top and undo the screw underneath) and have a look at the mechanism gubbins...
