Interstar fuel flap issue

Hey, my 2015 Nissan Interstar with a diesel engine has a fuel flap problem. It won't open! The error memory has a fault stored, and locking/unlocking the flap isn't happening. Also, I've noticed some other minor functions aren't working. Anyone experienced this? I suspect it could be the linkage.

Whoa, sounds familiar! I had a similar issue with my Interstar. Does your key fob seem to be working alright otherwise? Check the lock actuator! It might be jammed or faulty. It's a pain!

Interesting! So, when you say 'similar issue,' was it exactly the same symptoms? And did you try anything before getting it fixed? I'm just trying to avoid a costly repair if possible.

Yep, same symptoms exactly! Tried fiddling with the flap, checking fuses, nada. Honestly, save yourself the headache and get it checked out. It's probably the lock actuator like I mentioned. Workshop time, I reckon!

Cheers for the advice! Ended up taking it to a workshop, and you were spot on – lock actuator. Cost me 210€ all in. Annoying, but at least it's sorted. Thanks again!
