weird one normally boots work off solonoid maybe pinched a wire or it could just be a coincidence, only way to tell is unplug window mech and see if it still does it

has to be electrical I would have thought either boot release button is throwing a wobbler or solonoid has jammed open

Scrap!!
My blue one used to do it.
U tried pressing the boot release when its open? Solenoid changes state and it should shut.
If the solenoid doesn't fire then youve fucked it our kid!
