Just come to unlock my car to go into the boot and it won't open, the central locking system works for all the doors. When you push the button under the plastic badge nothing happens. Can anyone tell me the problem? thanks

Great thanks, I've been in touch with the garage and apparently there is a back log of approx 500 orders for the switch, problem due to the bad weather they said.
