Classic Vauxhall Corsa D boot lock fault. Common problem. How to. Save ££££ 

Nice fix Rich, just a couple of note worthy things to keep in mind the locking/unlocking in a short space of time can cause the central locking to lockout for a time period, even my Cavalier does this and I have seen other car manufacturers do the same thing, I think it’s so it doesn’t flatten the battery if a micro switch or other component malfunctions. Like you said the inner boot skin will get condensation on it in cold weather. Nice video though mate well done.

Got the same symptoms on my Corsa D so will follow your guide to clean all the parts. I might also try to make a rubber seal to sit between the outside of the handle and the bodywork to try to prevent water ingress. Thanks for posting this.

how did you clean up that corrosion from the small clip? i can't seem to open it without breaking

cheers but ditch the backing track..

Its piss simple. 2 screws,pull the plastic off. 2 more screws ,remove wire. Refit in reverse. 40 mins and im no mechanic
