I would tend to agree with Chris, i think the 2 are unrelated. Do you have a meter you can check the voltages on the flap motor with ?
Can you describe the noise the engine is making ?

Try connecting a power source to the flap motor direct to see if it works at all. On my saloon the flap motor is triggered from the lighting circuit. When I had a earth short in one of the rear light clusters it blew the fuse and the flaps closed, refusing to open again. I ‘fixed it’ by unplugging the flap motor and reversing the plug to trick the flaps open. It got me home.

Disconnected motor for covers at rod , headlights still all ok & sidelights. Ignition on but engine not running all fine on the light front , start engine and there is a noise (sounds like coming from engine , def. not from motor for headlights) , I have tried disconnecting cables individually from relay , have even removed relay completely and noise still there , but only when engine running ?????
