Porter fuel flap release failure

Having trouble with my 2016 Hyundai Porter diesel. The fuel flap release isn't working. There's an error message stored, and I can't lock or unlock the fuel filler flap. Some other functions seem unavailable too. Anyone seen this?

The 2016 Hyundai Porter diesel has a fuel flap release failure, with the flap being unresponsive to both the release button and key fob. The issue was identified as a defective linkage, which was confirmed and repaired by a mechanic. The repair cost was approximately 210€.

Hey, I had something similar with my Porter. Is it completely unresponsive, even from the release button inside?

Yep, totally unresponsive, whether I use the release button or the key fob. Did yours do the same?

Yep, sounds like exactly what happened to mine. I tried fiddling with it myself, but ended up just taking it to the shop. Turned out to be a defective linkage, which cost around 210€ to fix. Best to get it checked out.

Thanks for the info! I suspected an electrical fault, but a defective linkage seems plausible. I'll take it to a workshop ASAP. The mechanic confirmed the linkage was defective and replaced it. The repair cost was indeed 210€. Thanks again!
