Turn car off and the hatch releases instantly.

Mine is the Touring Sport Coupe, if that makes any difference. I can't see them making to different harnesses/wiring set-ups for the same vehicle, but I have seen weirder stuff before.

I bet there are differences in the harnesses they use between my base and your sport. Probably a lot of them. Perhaps my simpler base model just doesn't have the particular connector.

Be interesting if another member with a 2018 base chimed in.

I checked the owner's manual (page 3-21) & it was on the vague side for information. It showed the valet on/off switch on the lh side of the glove compartment when it is open. Mine just has a blanking plate & I believe the valet feature is for the roadster which makes sense. No point in making them all the same & easy all 'round.

The mystery is solved. I pulled the battery cables off on Monday evening to reset the ECU after messing with TPMS sensors. Wanted to see if the tool I purchased "really" worked ( it did ).
I started the car, drove about 20 minutes, parked and without even thinking about it pulled the hatch switch. Car was in neutral, ebake on and the latch popped open.

Now, I think this could have been a glitch and I honestly don't think I'm THAT stupid as not to know how to pull a switch..BUT I accept the fault was mine and you were 100% correct all along.

I apologize to anyone who was misled by my posts, it was not intentional.
