Fuel Filler Flap fails to unlock
Posted: Tue Nov 25, 2014 12:26 pm
A problem has recently developed with my Polo, in that the fuel filler flap no longer unlocks automatically when the ignition is switched off / key removed.
Initially the fault was intermittent, but now it is permanent. I believe the locking mechanism is actuated by a solonoid, however I can find no mention of a fuse protecting this system (of course it is likely not the fuse at fault, but optimistically, it may be).
Do anyone know which fuse protects the solonoid release, or have experience of this problem on a Polo of this vintage (late 2010).
Many thanks,
Alexander
