How to open the boot of the Grande Punto using the emergency release

Model: Fiat Punto MK 3, Punto EVO, 199, Grandepunto - Years 2005-2018

This video shows how to open the boot of the Grande Punto using the emergency release. Enter the cabin and access the boot lock from inside the boot. Insert your fingers into the lock housing and press the lever downwards to the right to open. This allows you to bypass any electrical failure of the boot release while waiting to take the car for repairs. The video demonstrates a common scenario: the two wires of the boot have been severed and need to be replaced or soldered to restore contact.
