Could be that the boot switch is stuck in or worse could be water in the switch itself if so owners have removed the switch and dried it out with good results

It could also indicate a failing car battery. This has been known to throw up all kinds of electrical issues you wouldn’t imaging could be due to a weak battery.

An alternative to removing the switch might be to attack it with a hair dryer. When I had my 406 coupe the same problem arose and that seemed to cure it.
