Thanks to all you guys who have helped me before with my previous spark plug issue and my door wiring issue

all are now resolved 

now this morning I got in the car after loading three screaming kids in and took them to school

in the journey the boot opened by itself

i got out, closed it and it opened again

i closed it again and it sounded like it was having a fit as there was a constant clicking noise

i have checked the harness between the car and the boot but I can see no brakes in the wire

anyone else had this issue

cheers

Have you trapped anything in the actual boot closing lock? They and the pop can be quite sensitive. 

Some models have a remote boot pop, next to the drivers knee, in the front door. If you have that, have you damaged it?

 

The boot popping with can fail and often then fire off many times, like a machine gun. They are around £30 to buy from a dealer and usually MORE from a breakers yard!
