Edit due to shocking english

I got my electric boot wired up today, after a couple of minor design changes. now I have a problem as it sticks, the actuator apears to be working as intended when the boot is open as it pulls the cable fine to operate the boot lock. when the boot is closed however it sticks and you have to wiggle the boot lid to get it to open.

Any Idea's I dont want to have it stick down permenant !!!

blimey, you seem to be writing Scottish aswell

Erm.. most of the time when you find the boot to stick, the centre pin doesn't sit in the centre.
Doesn't have anything to do with the electric opener (as long as it doesn't pull the pin, which is very unlikable)

Best would be to undo the big nut which holds the centre pin. Undo as in.. it has to move when you push it from one side, but it shouldn't 'fall down in one corner' when you lift the boot lid.

Then push the bootlid in, but keep it out the lock, jiggle a bit and tighten the nut. Then check if it's perfectly aligned..
