How to open the trunk of the Crown?
2 Answers
The trunk of the Crown can be opened in the following three ways: 1. Inside the car, you can manually pull the trunk release switch. 2. Outside the car, you can use the remote key to open it by pressing the trunk release button. 3. If the remote key is out of battery, you can use the mechanical key to open the trunk. The keyhole is located above the license plate, and you need to bend down to see it. Insert the key and turn it to open. Below is some related information about the Crown: 1. The body dimensions are 5020*1805*1480mm, with a wheelbase of 2925mm. 2. The domestic Crown engines come in three types: 2.5L, 3.0L, and 4.3L. The first two are V6-cylinder 24-valve designs, while the 4.3L engine is a V8-cylinder. They are equipped with the Dual VVT-i system for intelligent variable timing on both intake and exhaust valves.
Opening the Crown's trunk is super easy. I just press the trunk button on the remote key, usually marked with a luggage icon, and the tailgate slowly rises with a gentle press. If the remote doesn't respond, try the small switch on the lower left corner of the driver's seat inside the car—pressing it also opens the trunk. Remember, it can be operated even when the engine is off. But if the key battery is dead, there's a hidden cover on the trunk lid; pry it open, insert the mechanical key, and turn it. From my decade-plus driving experience, the Crown's tailgate offers ample space, so keep the area clean to avoid debris jamming the lock. Safety first—don’t let kids play with the key buttons to prevent accidental pinching. Regularly checking the key battery life can save you from awkward moments. Once, I couldn’t open it after shopping and found the lock was frozen; pouring hot water easily solved the issue.
