Where does the cable go to ? Assume it releases something ? It doesnt release the spare or something does it ? That would be a good idea ?

Thanks Er1c,

It disappears into the padding of the arch (heading towards the front of vehicle.)

Thought it might have been to do with the handbrake (it’s a hybrid also) but it doesn’t reset itself once started.

Vehicle doesn’t have a spare.

Cheers.

I did think that beneagles but when the handbrake is re-engaged the cable doesn’t become taught again!

Turns out it’s the manual release catch for the electric charging point in case of the charging cable not being able to release itself automatically.

Cheers all.
