Default SW Main Tailgate Switch / Handle problem

Hi,
My MAIN boot / tailgate won"t open, had to take rear cover off, and using the screwdriver to open the catch as per handbook in emergency situation etc...

Now, I went out to Martin"s today and got the car on Planet Peugeot....the rear window opens ok....but...after I open the main boot [ screwdriver etc]...there is a lot of small pieces of broken, black coloured plastic left in the small recess which holds the "U" bracket for the catch to lock onto...

First impression was I needed a new catch...but....Martin can operate no problems via Planet etc..

..can anyone direct me to the part no of the handle / internal switch at all? I definitely seems like this is the part that is internally broken, and all the small parts have fallen down to the lowest point they could, making it "look" like a broken catch.....but actually the handle itself?

Hope you can make sense of out my ramble!!!

Thanks,

Clifford


Anyone else hear of this problem before??

That would make more sense really rather than the glass opening via the remote

Does this mean the glass doesn`t open then if you pick tailgate rather than glass ? better to fix switch then.

Had a quick look again....very fiddly job!...surprised at only three parts to the handle assembly!...but maybe better...

Martin....Part 13 could be the bit that has broken up with me??

Didn"t know you could change from glass to tail gate opening via Planet?...but would be better going for the manual fix??

Thanks for all the responses folks, appreciated!

Cliff

Magma...thanks.
...Martin wants to know whereabouts the function is please??

My glass only opens with the remote at the minute....will it change to manual, once Martin gets PP to open the tailgate via remote??
