where or how can i find the boot sensor? or will it be a fuse somewhere?The wiper won't work if the boot is open, you need to find the cause of the boot showing open. I did have this once and had to slam the lid shut a couple of times and it's been ok since.
I doubt if a fuse will be the culprit, the 'sensor' is probably part of the boot latch mechanism. With the boot lid fully shut pull down a rear seat back or release the luggage cover (ST) and look to see if the light in the boot is on all the time, I think it will go out automatically after a short time anyway as the electrics are 'put to sleep' to stop the battery discharging.where or how can i find the boot sensor? or will it be a fuse somewhere?

The wipers are now working but the sensor is still an issue. I’ll check tomorrow on your tip and let you know if I find anythingI doubt if a fuse will be the culprit, the 'sensor' is probably part of the boot latch mechanism.

Are you saying that the indicator on the dash is showing the boot is still open, but the wiper is now working?The wipers are now working but the sensor is still an issue. I’ll check tomorrow on your tip and let you know if I find anything

Yes, wipers weren’t working originally, now they are.Are you saying that the indicator on the dash is showing the boot is still open, but the wiper is now working?
It maybe that the 'error' is stored and will need clearing with OBDeleven or VCDS, but I've not heard of that happening. It's strange that the wiper is now working with the warning light on.Yes, wipers weren’t working originally, now they are.
Now it’s just the boot sensor still says open!!
I’ve read a few things on here to say take off the latch and clean it, so going to try that and also clean the rear washer pipes. Other than that I’m stuck!
many other suggestions?
