Hi all. After giving the car a good valet today I can no longer open my boot. Whether using the key fob or pressing the button inside the car it won't release, is this a known issue on the fabia? Could it be down to a drop in voltage on the battery? Any help appreciated ta.

Anyone got any ideas? Could do with being able to open the boot. Cheers.

Did you change the battery in your fob, and have you tried both of them to see if they will unlock the boot?

Unfortunately I only got one key when I bought the car, I haven't changed the battery in it yet. The reason I thought it might be the cars battery itself is because at night when pulling up to a stop the headlights dim also when you get in the car if you don't start it quickly it locks itself & the alarm goes off.

Alternator runs the car once it's started but bad battery could cause a large current draw at low revs, time to take it to the garage mate.

The fob doesn't unlock the boot either by the way.
