recently bought a focus estate with 2 keys, 1 key is the standard fob, and other is a simple cut key.

my issue now is recently changed battery in fob, since then the fob wont work, swapped back to old batt, still wont work.

now I cannot open the hatch.

i'll post in the technical for advice... thanks.

If the car is unlocked on central locking then the boot should open by pressing the switch in the bootlid above the number plate, between the number plate lights.

Think it's only the fiestas that have them maybe umm try the back I know with my dads mondeo there's like a rubbery bit on the back that you can push up and the boot opens if that makes sense
