Mini Cooper Rear Hatch Won’t Latch Repair

If you have a Mini Cooper and the rear hatch won’t stay shut, or won’t open when you activate the switch, this video will help you.

In this video I cover both the mechanical and electrical issues that may happen with newer Mini Coopers. If nothing else you’ll have a better understanding of how these latches work by the end of the video.

Here is additional information on how to solve electrical issues with your vehicle: http://www.ericthecarguy.com/faq/solv...

FYI there is an extended version of this video available to Premium Members of EricTheCarGuy.com: https://www.ericthecarguy.com/premium...

I hope the information is useful to you.
