Hi everyone,

We have a 206cc from 2001 - and rarely any problems. However - now we have one - our x-max gid´ft for the kids are in the boot - and it will not open. Key turned left - all noises are "as usual" - but it will not open. I suspect that some item (plastic bag) has got stuck in the catch within the boot - thus blocking the opening. The workshop in here in Denmark tried - no avail. They suggested to cut a hole in the trunk !!!!!
I would like to try out the following: If the Safety curtain in the booth was closed I could open the roof - which would open the trunk cover. I have to "simulate" that the safety curtain is open by x-wiring the switches.
Does anyone know where to find this signal? A simple short between the Out and In should do the trick.

Any help will be very much appreciated,

Regards from Troels in Denmark.

It will be x-mas after all....

Thank you very much for your reply. On the 2001-version there is a small hole behind the left hand passenger seat - only covered by a bit of boot-lining.

After 15 minuts I could open the boot by partly opening the roof. And I got the x-mas presents out.

Thank you very much for helping me out - and a merry x-mas to you ald all the 206cc people here
