I forgot about X300's system but considering both buttons stopped working gave me an idea that your security system might be causing this too . I mean your car should have a button somewhere that switches security on and off just like XJ40 does into the armrest

Yes, on my '95 there is a "valet" switch in the console cubby. I've never used it but I think it does indeed inhibit the electric boot lock functions.

If not that, look at the wiring at the boot hinge(s). I've heard that it a break over time.

Cheers

hello! I have te same exact problem as you. I have checked the wiring, relays and fuses and couldnt find anything! The only thing I noticed was that with the voltage power reader is that I am not getting any power from the yellow/orange wire that connects to the actualator into the relay, but I cannot find out why!! Does anyone know? Thanks.
