Problems with the trunk lid and warning light on the Renault Wind 2011: experiences and solutions

Warning light in the speedometer of the vehicle

Tailgate does not open automatically

Hey guys, I have a strange problem with my Renault Wind (2011, diesel). The trunk lid doesn't open automatically and a warning light comes on in the speedometer. I think it could be a defect in the Hall sensor on the tailgate. Have any of you ever experienced this and can give me tips on how you solved the problem in the workshop? What were your experiences?

Hello, something similar happened to me with my Renault Clio (2009, diesel). I only have a little experience with vehicle technology, but I had exactly the same problem. The Hall sensor in the control unit was defective. The whole thing cost about 1000 euros at my garage, which took great care of it. Have you ever read out your car's fault memory? Maybe that will give you a clue to the problem. Just ask, I'd be happy to help if I can.

Hey, thanks for the tip about the fault memory! I hadn't actually thought of that, I'll give it a try. It's crazy that it was so expensive for you. With my old car with 42605 km, so already a few journeys behind it, I would probably consider whether it's worth it. Let's see what the garage says. Do you happen to still have the defective sensor? I'd be curious to see the part.

Sure, I can fully understand your thoughts. With a mileage like that, you really have to weigh up whether the repair is still worthwhile. Fortunately, I still have the defective sensor! I picked it up out of curiosity. It actually looks like any other sensor, pretty unspectacular I'd say. But if you're interested, I can send you a photo! Let me know what comes out of the workshop. Seems to be a pretty common problem with these models. And don't forget the fault memory, that can be really helpful! Good luck with that!

Thanks again for all the information and advice! By the way, I'd be really interested to see a photo of the faulty sensor. Sure, I'll definitely let you know what comes out at the garage. Hopefully it's nothing too expensive. I'll definitely have the fault memory checked. I'll get back to you when I know more. See you then!

Sers, have a look at the button on the tailgate, i.e. the button to open it. It sounds to me like it's broken.
