I got went by the fender and belt the plastic on place and with a flat head I inserted it by the spring and moved the internal black plastic piece and then it opened. I’m going to try to fix this with a parking brake connector which should work. If you don’t hear back it worked. Saved $500 dealer price tag. Also I didn’t want to do that since their part isn’t good to begin with and the cable itself is fine.
How do you get the bonnet op. In the first place if the lever is broken.. great vid thanks

You can actually just remove the plastic cap by pulling it to the right when it is still closed. Now you can pry it open from underneath with a screwdriver, which will break the motor, but that doesn't matter since it is already broken. Your fuel door will remain intact, that is more important.

You do need a trailer licence to use this trailer. Only a trailer with a laden weight of 750kg or less can be used with a standard full B driving licence. If you don't have the BE trailer licence, then you are driving illegally with this trailer and also not insured regardless of what vehicle you are pulling it with
@kildareeman4 ай бұрын
If the trailer's DGVW (Design Gross Vehicle Weight) is more than 750kg but the DGVW of the vehicle + the DGVW of the trailer does not exceed 3,500kg.
Your link refers to the capacity of trailers and the towing capacity of the vehicle, which is all irrelevant to my point. My point is to do with having the correct driving licence firstly, and then the correct towing rated vehicle and trailer. A full B driving licence only allows you to tow 750kg max end of story, that's regardless of what the vehicles towing capacity is or what the trailer capacity is that you are using. If you are pulling a trailer rated over 750kg, then you need a full BE driving licence and the appropriate towing vehicle. The max that a BE licence covers is 3500kg trailer, and the vehicle is also maxed at 3500kg. That's a total of 7000kg max For anyone reading this, be warned if you are thinking about towing this or bigger trailers on a B licence. If you only have a full B licence, then you can not pull this 1400kg trailer regardless of what the capacity is of the towing vehicle. If you are on a Learning B driving licence, then you can't tow any trailer at all

@@MIB-iy6qq “You may tow a trailer with a maximum mass (as specified by the manufacturer) not greater than 750kg, or where the maximum mass is more than 750kg, the combined maximum mass of the towing vehicle and the trailer is not greater than 3,500kg” source - www.roadsmart.ie/Drivers/Trailer-Towing

You obviously don't have a BE licence because if you had, you would know the law after doing the BE test. Your interpretation of them links is corrupted to suit your needs only, and is regardless of the law and other road users' safety. B licence is required to tow any trailer over 750kg. B licence only covers a vehicle up to 3500kg without a trailer attached. The average Toyota etc 4x4 is around 2500kg unladen, allowing the difference up to the 3500 for passengers diesel, cargo etc. Your 1400kg trailer can not be included within the B licence range of 3500kg for the towing vehicle. Any trailer over 750kg must be braked and requires a BE licence, towing insurance, towing vehicle rated to pull required weight

Hi guys who are doing this fix yourself. I just tried it and it’s actually possible to accomplish by removing just the fuel door housing. But it requires a lot of blind touching and feeling where the socket is. Long and thin fingers do help a lot. My fingers are thin but not exactly long. Watching this video to find out the position of the socket does help a lot! Quite easy to remove the switch just by blind touching, tough part is putting it back blind because of angle issues and having to aim the socket blind. Definitely gonna take very long and many tries, but it’s not as tiring to remove the inner panels. And putting inner panels back has its own troubles when the clips will not be in place altogether when u smack them in, and once u miss any of them and it bends (especially the inner ones), it gets extremely troublesome and tiring to reinstall the panels. Good luck with anyone trying!! I got bored and replaced it although I dint really have to (it spoilt while it’s on ‘open’ mode so it can still open and close normally, just unable to lock), and eventually realised its not worth the effort at all 😂 but 1 more diy completed!

@kildareeman10 ай бұрын
This was actually a VRS too, there was less than 80k miles on clock when it went. I gave the registration number of the car to my local Skoda dealer and they then supplied me with the correct part. Personally I would only buy off the main dealer to ensure you get an OEM replacement part with a warranty 👍
