[QUOTE="oscar, post: 161880, member: 2757"] i'd be looking at the boot switch relay, as it was a common and known problem on mk 2 / 3 clios, upon which the twingo platform is based on using the same relay switch and locking mechanism's. the way to test it (if neil would be a champ and make another picture!) is to lock and unlock the car and if the relay itself make a little clicking noise it's working (this is the switch inside switching on and off). if it doesn't click, replace (you can youtube or google how to test an automotive relay if you wish, but with the cost of them i wouldn't bother) the relay on the assumption you have checked the fuses like neil pointed out. this should cost you about 6 or 7 pounds that is basically the entire electrical system leading up to the mechanical lock itself checked, leaving the only remaining suspect the boot lock itself!
