I was about to do something like this, but I came on yt before that, just to see is there some way to repair it in a "eyes friendly way", after seeing bunch of videos that didnt help, I saw this beautiful icon of melted plastic and I knew it, this is it :) Thanks man
@@bradautobro do you know a link or anything to that video i cant search your page for that video youtube app wont let me. I installed a head unit in a MK5 golf and it will not open the boot but everything else works fine.. im thinking i pulled the harness and might of damaged a cable but cant for the life of me find a fuse or wire diagram that mentions anything about the boot latch 😩
You got lever , put your seats down and you will see plastic round cover on trunk . Take it off and inside theres lever push it to the right side of the car . It will open trunk
@@Ableee I found it thanks mate. Nothing was working at the back, rear wiper, boot wouldnt open, fog lights, reverse light etc... it was a snapped earth wire in the harness top left inside the rubber boot. Crimped the wires back together, all sorted now.

Exactly the type of video I was looking for. I’m gonna try this before spending over £100 on a new one
Glad I could help good luck

Poetically grateful 🙏🏻 thankyou
@@bradauto works perfectly btw
Awesome! You may have just saved me $300 for a whole new assembly.
Thank you! 🙏
Awesome mate, i will have a look if i can repair and will save me few pounds. cheers
Nice fix! I may need to do this. I can pop the boot with the switch on the door and remote, but the handle itself is unresponsive. Irritating! haha
Good luck 🤞🏻
@@bradauto Well, the switch/handle is good. Time to fix the wiring, though…
@@158158cow I have a video about that too. 🏋🏻

@ dunno why you can’t see the vid. Does yours have a reverse camera? That’s linked to infotainment maybe you got a problem there.
Mine wouldn’t open to the plastic bit looked fine so I just showered the whole thing with wd40 and and works now
Nice!
how did you get the boot open when the switch isnt working bro? cheers

Nope. Not strong enough
