Reasons Why the Citroen C-Quatre Trunk Won't Open?

[ArcherLynn]

First, remove the lining panel covering the fuel tank inside the trunk. The lining panel is usually secured by some plastic clips and can be easily pried open with a screwdriver. After removing the inner lining panel, you can see the locking mechanism of the fuel tank cap, as well as the pull wire for remote operation. Simply pull the wire to open the fuel tank cap. Opening Instructions: There is a large safety lock button on the car's control panel (marked with a lock symbol, located in the same row as the triangular emergency stop button). Press it to unlock. If the Citroen C-Quatre trunk cannot be opened from the outside, you can enter through the rear door. Inside, there is a small mechanical switch next to the lock block; pulling it will open the trunk. Inspection Instructions: After opening, check what is causing the trunk not to open. You can adjust the relative positions of the trunk lock and the lock hook and lubricate the locking mechanism, which usually resolves the issue. For trunk noises, focus on checking whether the door lock and its assembly are properly fitted. Alternatively, apply some grease to the door lock block and lock post. Adjustments and lubrication can generally solve the problem.
