Help: Boot wont open

[Chicken]

If it helps theres a small wire tool in the spare wheel compartment that looks like it could help

nope I think thats the wheel trim removing tool. Singlespeed is right there's a small tool on the fuse box cover thats like some big plastic tweezers and I think it's orange but not sure.

Oh yea i thought it could be that i forgot bout the wheel trim removal

Mines also orange.

For the mechanicaly challenged, it may be best to stick to using the plastic fuse removal tweezers (if they are there), instead of poking about the fusebox with a piece of wire

Good news I have found the fuse, must admit thanks to Neil because I am totally idiot and didn't really have a clue what I was looking for

I will take a trip to a garage/halfords in the morning to get a replacement

 

[singlespeed]

No worries. It's obviously realy simple if you know what your looking for. However, not knowing and being faced with a box full of fuses and not knowing what to look for must be a bit daunting.

 

[maggi200]

Meh, I just pull them out willy nilly till I find one that looks dead usually

And I like the sledge hammer usually. Makes light work of most situations

 

[HigtonA]

Great news, I went down to Halfords this morning and got a new fuse and everything is working again soo happy now.

Thanks for the help, especially Neil

 

[maggi200]

I'd suggest buying a box (not from halfords) and keeping them handy.

Though I dont recommend letting a girl put them in your boot or you end up with this

Needless to say she was dumped

 

[HigtonA]

Lol, I may do just so I have some spare, but I don't plan on blowing any more fuses

A friend of mine had a similar experience! We were parked up in Tesco's and had our windows down talking to each other (as we were in groups), my friend went to put his windows back up and they wouldn't close! Bearing in mind this was at 01:00 in the morning on a winters eve. So we were sat there for ages pulling fuses out to try and close his windows! Brilliant lol.
