VF Fuel lid will not release

[panhead]

The screws are at the end that goes through into the fuel cap cavity, have a look at the photo I posted earlier and you'll see the bolt holes.

For memory I used a Phillips head screw driver with a 90 degree bend in it.

As I said, fiddly but not hard.

Sorry it's been a while since I've had to do one.

Try unscrewing the white box containing the solenoid from the black bracket, pull it out taking the pin with it and the door will open.

You can then remove the bracket by removing the screws in the cap cavity then reassemble it and check if it's working.
