Soft Close - Upper Trunk lid not working

[jbny]

Hi All,

The upper trunk Lid of my 05 X5 4.8IS is not working and it is currently in an open state, As my car was at the dealership for suspension callibration i was able to run diagnostics and rule out any issues with Fuses or Relays...I have been quoted 380+tax for the part (Dont have the part number)
Can someone please help me figure out what i need to do to check the lock mechanism, i dont really want to spend the $$ before checking the mechanism itself...maybe it's something i can fix...i hope..

Thanks for your help
