Fuse in the back fuse box.. not central locking but it's a circuit something

Cant believe it, the whack on the raised bit where you said worked, cheers.

push the tailgate firmly so that it is shut, then give it a sharp rap with the heel of your fist to the left of the raised number plate light cover, then pull up the tailgate as you would normally. It should open. This is a common fault unfortunately. Mine fixed itself after several months of the same problem. However. Mine refused to start today, even though the fuel and electrics are fine. The garage is baffled.

I have an 03 plate signum and had exactly the same problem. If you drop the seat and get into the boot there is a release catch in the middle of the boot panel, you can't miss it. just put a screw driver( i just used the car key) in the slot and turn. It even has arrows telling you which way to turn it. I've only had the problem since friday so am still looking for a solution as my boot release won't do anything. If you find a solution please let me know, dji8879 at hotmail.com,
thanks,
