2 Answers
Here are the methods to open the trunk of Borgward BX5: 1. Check the central control area inside the car. Look for the trunk switch button in the central control area of Borgward BX5. (If not found, the trunk opening button is located near the rear tailgate.) 2. License plate position at the rear. The trunk switch is designed above the license plate. To open the trunk, you need to reach your hand under the tailgate, above the license plate. 3. Quick method to open the trunk. The Borgward BX5 key has a total of 4 buttons, which are lock, unlock, trunk switch, and car finder. Simply press the trunk opening button on the key for about 3 seconds, and the trunk will unlock. Then, gently lift it upwards to open the trunk of Borgward BX5.
I remember when I drove my relative's Borgward BX5 before, opening the trunk was quite simple. Just press the trunk button on the key for two seconds, which was especially convenient. Alternatively, inside the car, there's a button with a rear car icon below the left side of the steering wheel—just press it to pop open. If neither works, first check if the trunk lock is frozen or something is stuck, as this is a common issue in northern winters. If that doesn’t help, try the mechanical method: there’s a small hole in the middle of the rear seats leading to the trunk—reach in and flip the latch to open it. When opening the electric trunk door, remember to do it gently and avoid pressing down forcefully, as damaging the hydraulic strut could be troublesome.
