Boot won't open, can someone help me troubleshoot?

[GolfVFSI]

Hi all,

Could use some help to troubleshoot what's preventing my boot from unlocking/opening.

I removed the boot plastic cover and after having a look at the system:

- VW logo doubles doubles down as a switch. When I push the VW logo, the white bite rotates and activates the switch. I can hear a "click" when I push the logo down



- Then the switch mush send a signal to the boot lock latch pictured below for the latch to disengage.



What would be the best way to proceed to figure out which part is the culprit here?

Any help/insight would be appreciated
