i thought there was a way from inside to open it - not sure how tho.

well

in my disco 1 i shorted the permanent live to the radio, and that busted the interior lamps and the clock time (not lights)

i assume the disco 2 has the fuel flap added to this circuit

on my d1, there is a separate 3 amp fuse for the radio memory

it'll be there somewhere!!

most vehicles with electronic fuel flaps have emergency access points behind the trim. 9 times outta 10 all you gotta do is pull a cable or lever.

The fuel cap I have No idea! But radio and lights I do as had the same problem. In a discovery the radio and interior lights work on the same fuse. Which is stock normally a 5 AMP but if you look on the back of your radio it probably has a 10 AMP so you need to locate the radio and lights fuse in the fuse box and replace it with a 10 AMP fuse then it should all work fine.
