How to repair the tailgate lock of the Volkswagen Touran

Model: Volkswagen Touran 5T, MK 2 - Years 2015-2024
Part: Door lock

In this video we see the truly ingenious way to open the trunk lock from the inside with a simple piece of wire: we see that the trunk lock does not open by operating the button. The lock was tested by the youtuber, who had verified that everything was in order, so the problem seemed unsolvable, but he did not give up. He removed the connector from the button and with a simple paper clip bent like a bridge he inserted it into the connector, creating a bridge that allowed the lock to be opened, which now works perfectly, as well as the button.
