    Welcome Ray

    Can’t say I can offer much help, other than a google search
    There’s normally a fuse box in the Right hand side of boot, behind carpet, easily removed panel
    Once located, there “should” be a pull out page with fuse box layout schematic, I believe there’s also a fuse box behind the glovebox

    Thinking aloud, the latch actuators were prone to failure, I recall changing on E60

    Somebody, more knowledgable shall be along!

    More likely to be a faulty sensor or microswitch, unlikely that there would be be a fuse dedicated for a single function such as closing the compartment lid. I assume all other electrical functions are still working ok?

    You could be correct
    My recollection was indeed fouled and it turned out to be the external boot switch that failed
    The rubber covered toggle to manually open, when I replaced the switch I restored function of the soft close!
