Thanks for this ....... just replaced mine! Looks as if some water had got in there at some point during the last 15 years astge screws holding the switch onto the boot plate were rusted. This might be what did for the switch. I might put a little sealant around the back plate as there's no rubber ring to seal the joint between the handle and the boot. Then I'll try and keep the car going for another 15 years. Hurrah!
Thanks for the video....car nearly ran out of battery due to faulty, wet circuits....so pulled over and disconnected the lock until i could get back home, drained the water out of the switch mechanism and replaced the lock.
I think this is happening to me right now, the switch is randomly triggering on its own and the battery is going flat, I believe the flat battery is because of the switch triggering, I wasn't certain, but it sounds like what you described
How do i determine if its the switch or the lock that is faulty? The lock can be opened by a screwdriver using the lever from inside the trunk but nothing happens when you press the switch button on the handle to realse the lock
Hello there. Thank you very much as always. This channel is a must for all micra k12 owners! I have one question please. I recently upgraded my stereo system to JVC Apple CarPlay (had to buy a secondhand double din carrier fascade). I am thinking of hooking up a reverse camera too but I’m not sure where is the best place to mount it. Do you have any ideas?
Thanks

Thanks very much. I don't really work with aftermarket stereos or other upgrades to be honest, sorry
No problem! These videos are giving very good insights! So glad to have found your channel.
Hi! Could you add information about screws which holds switch? What kind of size they are?
10mm socket to remove the main switch from boot. T20 torx to remove the switch from the holder.
Thanks
