Your locking is vacuum operated, the normal faults ar a vacuum pipe off or damaged, or the diaphragm faulty on the boot lock

Yes it sure is.
For an indication of the fault, you can hear the PSE vacuum pump running when you lock, if a leak they will run for more than 5 sec, pipes and wires can breakk around the boot hinges, but start behind the panel
