Fareastdriver,
My variation - boot light stays on after boot closed, result misery ("Micawber") - flatty batty, of course ! Why did they ever do away with the dear old starting handle ? (Always check bulb the moment you open boot - it shouldn't be hot).
Your bomb-door arrangement sounds a real masterpiece of design (how did we ever win the war ?) Left you with a real Catch-22, and no mistake !
