My Taycan Boot (US:Trunk) Won't Open

[Talisker]

I cannot open my boot, using the button, the internal control, the key etc. Any clues? fuse etc
Do I reset the 12v, Taycan 2 finger death punch?
Is there a manual overide?
Has anyone experienced this as I'm meant to be heading to the Isle of Man in a week

If you mean rear lid, water ingress is a possible cause. https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2023/MC-10242058-0001.pdf
There were some posts on here about this in the past.

Use one of your other Taycans!

Seriously though, not heard of that but try the reset OR the other set of keys.

I had this once!
What worked for me was closing the car en let it closed for some time (so the car goes to sleep). Then I went back, openend the car and the trunk would open again. Think it was a software bug. Don't know if you gonna have the same problem but you can't loose anything with trying this.

Hopefully yours as reset now and was just software glitch but I had this on my 2020 4s a couple of years back. It was initially intermittent, seemingly leaving the car overnight and going back to it worked a few times but then it completely stopping working. Turned out to be a broken wire which was fixed under warranty.

Note that there is no emergency release for the boot/trunk and so you have to drop the seats to get access.

No emergency release - it's one you need to get into Porsche. Happened to me on Christmas Day

All,
FYI, it turned out to be a leaky grommet for the rear windscreen wiper, the water blew the latch mechanism. All sorted now
