Thank you for posting this video. I fixed my father-in-law's trunk problem. He gave me 20€... easy money 😂😂😂
This applies to the Megane 2 5-door hatch as well. Very helpful.
Rob you are a star - brilliantly clear descriptions - helped me to sort the problem in seconds. THANKS
2. Minutes in, problem solved. My car boot wasn’t closing despite me smashing the F out closing it 😂 nice one 👌🏻
Thanks for the tips. Problem was boot not closing and therefore would not lock, which also meant interior lights would stay on and drain battery. All solved now by just following your guidance.
Thank you very much
I followed your video.
Ordered the boot button from eBay £12.
Took me 2 minutes to replace
Awesome
Local garage quoted me £90
Thanks for doing this video have just bought a Megan estate with a boot that will not lock affecting the other doors so nothing locks.time to order a new switch .
Cheers mate! Exactly what I was looking for, saved me a lot of time!
Excellent video no messing about and job done, thanks mate hope to see more of your videos soon. Hopefully you have a few on the Audi TT mk2. 🙂
My in-laws had a Scenic 2, bought it at 1 year old and it was the biggest pain in the arse car ever. Annoying electronic faults galore. The final straw was the wipers failing on the motorway 😂
Would let u work on my car any day.
Love watching your videos.
Top bloke.
You saved my life
Thanks very much for the video and for giving the part number. Excellent, thanks again.
Thanks for the very informative video :) I don't know if my motor or switch is faulty (switch still makes nice clicky noise). My problem is intermittent... You video has given me confidence to open and take a look, thank you.
I have just bought a 2006 model. My problem is the boot door is fine no problem but the other door locks won't., not even with the emergency key.
Hi Rob just been through all your steps ....But in the end broken black wire between tailgate and body (bugger to find without test lamp) THANKS
Not exactly my problem, but still helped a lot. Thank you
Thanks, good instructive video, helped me a lot.
Goodonyamate. Just what I needed 🤠
Very good video. Helped a lot. Thank you!
Thank you so much, you have saved me a lot of money.

I have a lovely little shoe lace hanging out of my boot at the moment 😂and let me tell you that took some feeding through the hole in the release latch on the inside 🤦🏻♂️

I have locked boot problem with my 2016 renault megane but cant seem to find the switch that enables me to open it manually.
Thank you so much!
Thank you. It worked for Clio III also.
Awesome 👏
Wish i had seen this before buying a new actuator and spending afternoon fitting it, only to find it was just the switch that failed.
Thanks alot!
great video my daughter has a non working boot button so now how to change it
Hi.
Thanks so much for this video. I replaced the lock and it works perfect now but the open boot light wont go off on the dash. So i cant lock the car now.
Please please help.
Thanks mate
Thanks Rob
Cheers, good video, keep up good work.
Plz tell about the child safety lock in Renault scenic 2004,plz tell
I dont know how to lock the child safety lock,thanks
thank you .have problem with central.locking not licking car boot.then when.u open boot cat unlocks.
This just happened to my car, this video is super helpful but I couldn't quite see what you were using to undo the screws keeping the latch in, they didn't look like "normal" screw heads (as is probably evident by now I am useless with this kind of stuff)
4:27 its a Torx bit. the size is T30
hi can u please also upload the video how to open the stuck tailgate of renault clio 2006 petrol. thanks
Renault espace as well. Thank you
Wonderful! Thank you so much
Would you know how to close sunroof on a Renault Megan's sports 2008 as I stupidly opened the boot while roof was in there
cheers mate I'll have it looked into it driving me insane hahaha
Thanks for the information and video.
You're welcome
I also have bought a 2005 2.2dci Renault Laguna estate. The fob isn't locking the doors and the boot isn't opening but it was yesterday? Car starts no errors on dash etc. Any suggestions?
Thank you\
Great informative video. any idea why are there 2 switches on the tailgate??
The second one should open your glass part
I have Megane 2003 and taildoor doesn't unlock. All is the same as you describe in this video but both button and lock are working. Put a lock from other Megane and that one doesn't work in mine. It is something electrical but not on the taildoor. Can you please make a video where to find where do wires come from. Where can I find a fuse or relay that sends signal to that lock. Thanx.
Tanks voor video's 👍
Great video :-)
Awesome, thank you.
i have Renault clio : have an issue with the back seat door lock its not locking & keeps opening when car is locked can you please suggest me what can i do ??????
Hiya, nice explanation with your video.
I got a Megane Scenic 2004, which developed such fault recently.
Dash electronic display says boot open, would not lock doors&boot using remote.
Although boot can be closed and opened as normal, perfectly ok. Central locking is the issue and the display inside.
What could be wrong? Please help.
Try changing the latch, it has a micro switch inside to say when the tailgate is open.
Good evening, I have Renault Senic of 2014, the deposit gate is blocked, how can I desblocked? Thanks
I had a megane 2 and every time it rained the door pockets would fill with water and also ruined the window motors.
Smell yer maw Likes you my friend, i have the same problem, please can tou tell me what did you do to fix it?
Did you change lock or the switch, or it was some wire problem? Please can tou answer me? Thx veru much
Hi Rob,
How do i fix the boot problem, mine has a strap caught in the clasp?
🤷♂️ Try having someone hold the switch in the open position then clamber inside and give it a boot
Where are u guys based please
my laguna has this problem,my battery was going flat while it was stood,but since the boot latch has failed ,my battery stays charged ,so could this have been the fault for the drain..thanks ..nice help..
Yes it’s possible
Hi, Same model Renault Scenic MKII - 2008, same problem - tailgate does not open, Warning light on. But the boot opens when the engine is running. Is it the same fault ? sounds like not enough power on battery to run boot motor. However the battery is good and works normally in other cases and the battery is able to start the Engine :)
It wouldn't be a battery problem. The tailgate of the vehicle in the video wouldn't open at any time so I guess yours may have a different problem that needs investigating.
One Auto, hi i have Renault Scenic 2003 where can I find the parts you use
lucas apell The customer got these parts from EBay. Not sure which seller though
What’s this thing at 8:30 called?
I had a 2004 renault scenic the drive was nice but the electrics was a nightmare rain water can get in the fuse box under the bonnet.
Yep that sounds about right :)
All Renault electrics from that era are dodgy. My Megane 2 has "interesting" central locking behaviour, a dead window and a "tricky" rear door. Oh, and I had to change the heater fan resistor pack, which got it going, but.. the NOISE!
i have the same problem with my Audi a3 2012 boot not opening and central locking not working do you think it could be the same thing
colin mcgrath You will be best to have your Audi scanned for fault codes. That will give you more direction.
Hi, I've got a 2010 Renault Megane Dynamique with the same problem. I've replaced the boot lock but the problem is still present. There does seem to be electrics going through the lock as the lock works, but the lock only seems to work when the boot is open. When I shut the boot, the lock doesn't operate. Open it again, and the lock operates. It's almost like it's inverted. Strange. Do you know what the problem could possibly be? Thanks.
You will have a broken wire where the tailgate hinges. The wire will be touching with the tailgate is open and not touching together with the tailgate shut
@@OneAuto Thanks for getting back to me so fast. Is this a costly fix? Something only a mechanic can fix?
Best for someone with experience, to trace the wire/wires and solder them
@@OneAuto Ok, thanks for your help.
I need to replace the tailgate of my Renault scenic 2006, would a tailgate from a Renault grand scenic be compatible
Lynne Lewis I'm not sure to be honest, but I doubt it.
My problem was that wires were broken for tailgate so check each wire before buying new parts. I noticed that every time I touch rubber tube through which wire passes, the lock were unlocking
Exactly, always test before buying new parts. Nice find 👍
@@OneAuto thanks for explaining how locking system works. It would be nice if you have video on how to repair wires diy.
Hi I’ve got a Renault Megane 2 easte I have change the button and the actuator it is working when the boot is fully open but I shut the boot the boot won’t open again en less I go in side the car in the boot and pull the white latch open like showed in the video I was just wondering if you could help thanks
Joshua Gregory Check for broken wires in the tailgate wiring loom where it flex’s near the hinges
One Auto, okay thank you for getting back to me to quickly will have a check later thanks
Does the button just prise out with a flathead screwdriver?
2:20 in the video you an see there is a tab either side of the button. Use small flat screwdriver or pick to push these in one at a time to release it
@@OneAuto Brilliant, I've just got it out now and ordered a switch, I hope thats it but if not I'll get the mechanism off eBay. Thanks so much for your help!
Is there a microswitch in the assembly, what is its function, and where is it situated, please?
Sorry can't remember, it's been a while since I did this job.
Thanks. Very good informative video. Keep up the good work, thanks!
I have almost the same problem with my 2003 Megane 2. When I press the boot button I can hear a buzzing sound but doesn't open. Could there be a problem with the latch?
Yes quite possibly
One Auto, Thanks for the fast reply!
Sorry! like the vids by the way!!
I'm having the same problem now. Same car, same year. The button seems okay though, just the lock itself.
Just when the Christmas weekend starts and I can't get to a dealer in time and have to go to a zillion places. Typical. So my car will be unlocked, parked on the public road for almost a week. Great.
Two questions. Is it possible to lock the boot the same way as you open it from the inside? So to make it close completely so that the sensor and the dashboard "feels" that everything is fine and I can lock the car down properly? Or is it just a way to open it manually? Second question. What happens when I disconnect the cable to the mechanism and try to lock the car. Will it give a fault or get fooled into thinking the lock is not broken? I'm just looking for a way to safely park my car until I can get it fixed or get the parts to fix it myself. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
LS_scape Always when places are closed!
The internal latch is just an emergency release and no more.
If it won’t lock it may need a new latch mechanism but power and grounds would need to be checked at the latch connector to verify this. (Just in case it has a broken wire somewhere)
I'll have to sit it out then. Thanks for the quick reply.
Do you know the part number or size of the two screws holding the lock? One is not letting go and I might have to wear it out / destroy it to get it out. It will need replacement of course.
And.... now the replacement lock is giving the same problems: I can't lock the booth. Only after doing a couple of really hard tries and poking into the lock. I know now the end is near. Somewhere in the next couple of days, I won't be able to lock it anymore. I see no other option but to also replace the button. Might be the cause of it. First go for the cheapest possible solution. It surely can't be that within 6 months, two locks wear out or break down, now? But on the other hand, I can't see how a "bad" button can break lock mechanisms. One other possibility is that the replacement lock was bad. But it looked brand new. So yeah, nice situation.
Hello, renault scenic 2002 boot wont, can u please tell me what is problem ?
Without testing it, no
Hi Rob, having similar problem but i dont know if its the lock or the button.... I have no lights on the dash saying boot is open, can you offer any ideas to suss out whats wrong without taking to a garage ? PS - i find your videos very helpfull for both our cars, top work !!
Hi Steve, you need a test light and check for power and ground at the lock when the button is pressed. I didn't show it in this one but have a Saab video doing similar.
i change my lock put new button and still not working but when pres the buton light bling one time nothing ause where is the problem ? can help ?
Hard to say without seeing your vehicle but did you check the power and grounds to the button and latch assembly?
It seems its the same with all frog cars..had a C4 coupe that did the same//what is it with these frogs,they know what fault happens time and again,but do nothing to remedy it
Is there a parts number for the locking mechanism?
John Stansfield Don’t know. They were just ordered from eBay
One Auto, thanks will get on ebay. Really useful video though. Thanks!
my sisters renualt clio inside light wont go off it thinks a door is open tho they are all closed
Have the codes read and check live data it should tell you which one it thinks is open
cheers matey
Instructions were brilliant but new lock sticks on the catch so can't get it to open ended up using a screwdriver. Argh!!
Grease it?
