2009 XC60 boot will not open/unlock

[wilbydoughboy]

I think according to manual its fuses 11 or 12 in glovebox fusebox B. Have a look in the manual. I have posted a photo with my last reply, this shows the position of the slot from inside but without the plastic cover.

Thanks.
The slot that you are referring to- is that at the bottom of the boot lid looking at it from inside?
I think I need to remove the carpet trim material that is covering it.

Is there anyone local to me who has diagnostics to check where the fault lies?
I am in Gravesend in Kent.
Many thanks

I dont think you can remove the carpet door trim with the tailgate shut. The photos show where I made a hole for the slot to be accessed and when closed the slot can be accessed through the hole in the plastic. The problem will be making a hole in the plastic with the door shut, I made the hole when the door was open but I think it could be done.

Is there anyone near me in Gravesend who has Vida and dice?
This would possibly narrow down the fault for my locked boot.
Thanks in advance guys.

Hello guys,
I got these error codes by pressing read button and rear fog button.
Does it mean CCM is buggered? Also when I unlock the car, the little light on tailgate carpet trim does not light up.
Anyway, these are the pictures-

Unfortunately, the forum is not allowing me to upload pictures- it says invalid token or something like that.
Anyways, following were the error codes, everything else was ready.

I eventually replaced the push switch just recently but it is the complete section with the number plate lights. The cost of the part new was £100. The internal cover needs to be removed and the tailgate needs to be open to gain access to the screws. There is a plastic cover over the locking mechanism and a slot and with a small drill bit or nail into the slot it can open the tailgate. I think that a hole drilled through the plastic cover in the right place should allow access to the slot and this I think can be done with the tailgate shut.

Hi mate,
Is this picture taken from outside the car or from inside the boot looking outwards?
