it is built in the actuator. could the trunk be open? sometimes the plastic/rubber cover of the button breaks or the water gets from the plate light and cause the handle to self trigger.

MiniToBe The trunk open and Close normally, the only problem is when Stop/move the car, warning light show. It could be something into the junction box ? or the wiring sensor is cut in somewhere?

The middle diagram shows the boot lock and on the second link, it is the last connection going to the fuse box.

When the light comes up, can you verify the lid is closed. bush on it to feel for space. Mine used to do that. Also, check if the lock itself actually closes all the way. open the hatch, and use a screw driver to push on the latch as if the hatch is closed. then drive to see if the light comes again.
