2014 Peugeot 5008 boot not opening!

Unread post by paddypaws77 »

Hi!
Any chance somone can give me wiring diagrams for the boot circuit for a 2014 Peugeot 5008?
For a while there has been a very intermittent problem with the boot not opening. It always righted itself so hard to get to the bottom of it. However, the boot has now stopped opening altogether and I need to have a look at it. I gather it is likely the wires broken where they pass into the boot from the car. It would be very useful to have a wiring diagram before I start delving in to it.
Many thanks!
Phil :-D

Hi, this has happened to mine. Can anyone help? If there at least a way to open it from inside?

Thanks

If you look at the catch from inside you should see a little hole here. Get a very small screwdriver & you should be able to flick the emergency release to open the bootlid.
It can be hard to see when its fitted on the car.

Thank you. I’ve had a go. I’m not sure if my screwdriver is too big but I’m not actually sure what I’m meant to do. Is it pressing down or turning something?

Thank you so much for your help. It actually opened normally this morning but has since reverted back. I can feel the sort of click when pressing the button. I’m going to assume a wiring/button fault. How possible is that to fix yourself? Are there any guides on how to do it or where to buy parts from?

Thanks

First port of call especially if it’s intermittent is to check for broken wires in the sleeve between the body & tailgate. Common break point due to the flexing as you open and close the boot.
