Introduction to the reasons why the Magotan trunk cannot be opened: It is necessary to check whether the control mechanism or the lock is faulty. If there are items such as bicycles on the trunk lid, the trunk lid cannot be opened either, as the trunk lid may close on its own under the influence of its own weight and additional loads. If it is indeed necessary to open the trunk lid, the trunk lid must be firmly supported with suitable supports or the load must be removed. The following is a related introduction about the trunk: 1. The vehicle trunk (also an electric tailgate) can be electrically controlled to open and close. There is a door closing button inside the trunk door. By touching this button, the trunk door can close by itself without human intervention. 2. The trunk can be opened or closed electrically or remotely. To open the trunk, simply press the button in the car or the remote key, and the trunk will open by itself. To close the trunk, press the closing button in the trunk or the closing button in the car, or the remote key, and the trunk will close by itself.

When I first drove my Magotan, I encountered the issue of the trunk not opening. Here are the common causes I've summarized. First, the latch might be stuck, possibly due to foreign objects blocking it or rust, causing the switch to malfunction. Second, motor failure, especially after water ingress during rainy days, can easily burn it out. Third, the remote key might be out of battery or suffer from signal interference, often occurring near electronic devices. Fourth, a blown fuse requires checking the fuse box in the engine compartment. Fifth, settings issues, such as the child lock being enabled but not turned off. When dealing with this, first try opening the trunk manually with the key, usually via a slot near the rear emblem. Regular maintenance includes adding lubricant to prevent sticking. If the issue recurs, it's advisable to visit a professional repair shop to diagnose potential wiring aging or other electrical hazards, avoiding forced operation that could damage components. Remember, regular checks of fuses and remote battery replacements can save you trouble.

When commuting with my Magotan, I found that the trunk often wouldn't open due to minor oversights. Once, it was because the remote key battery was depleted and ineffective, which was resolved after replacement; another time, debris was stuck in the lock gap, and manually opening it with the key and cleaning it solved the issue. It could also be due to motor damage during humid seasons or a blown fuse. When checking it yourself, first see if the remote signal is being interfered with by your phone, then test the manual keyhole. There's an emergency pull cord inside the trunk that you can try pulling. Preventive measures include not overstuffing the trunk and regularly wiping the lock to prevent dirt buildup. Relatedly, after rain, the trunk is prone to water accumulation which can corrode parts, so installing a waterproof seal is helpful. If the problem persists, go to the car shop to scan for system fault codes, and avoid risking disassembling parts on your own.

Common reasons for the trunk not opening on a Magotan: remote battery dead, latch stuck, motor failure, or fuse issue. Solutions include replacing the key battery, using the hidden key to open manually; check the fuse in the engine box. Avoid overloading the trunk to prevent lock deformation. For frequent issues, seek professional diagnosis for wiring or setting bugs. Simple prevention involves lubricating the latch.

Where are the drainage outlets of a car located?

A car has six drainage outlets. They are the door drainage outlet, sunroof drainage outlet, fuel tank cap drainage outlet, air conditioning drainage outlet, engine compartment drainage outlet, and trunk drainage outlet. Door drainage outlet: Most cars have at least two door drainage outlets, located at the lower part of the door panel. When it rains, water drains out from here. These drainage outlets are often overlooked due to their low position. Sunroof drainage outlet: The sunroof drainage outlets are located in the four corners of the sunroof and can be seen when the sunroof is opened. This design is crucial for rainy days. The sunroof drainage outlets must not be blocked by debris; otherwise, rainwater can easily seep into the car, causing electrical issues. Fuel tank cap drainage outlet: Located beneath the fuel tank filler cap. Some cars have fuel tanks that are not perfectly sealed, creating a concave space. Hence, this drainage outlet is designed. It is important to ensure this outlet remains unblocked. Air conditioning drainage outlet: The air conditioning drainage outlet varies by car model. If blocked, it must be cleared using a thin screwdriver from the car's undercarriage. The degree of blockage may vary. Engine compartment drainage outlet: The engine compartment has drainage outlets and channels that help keep it dry. The drainage outlets are large and prone to debris accumulation, requiring regular cleaning. These outlets are highly susceptible to blockage and are very close to the air conditioning intake. Due to the high temperatures in the engine compartment, bacteria can grow and potentially enter the car's interior through the air conditioning system. Trunk drainage outlet: The trunk drainage outlet is positioned very low. If the car is submerged in water beyond a certain level, water may flow into the trunk through the body structure. To use it, simply unscrew the outlet. If any drainage outlet is blocked, it can cause significant problems for the car, ranging from minor to severe damage. Therefore, prevention and regular maintenance are more effective than dealing with the consequences.

Is it safe to drink water left in the car?

Yes, it is safe. The plastic bottles used for water are relatively stable. Under normal circumstances and at typical temperatures, substances in plastic bottles are unlikely to decompose. Therefore, bottled water within its expiration date can still be safely consumed even if it has been exposed to high temperatures in a car. Additional information: The claim that heated plastic water bottles release toxic substances is not entirely accurate, as car temperatures rarely exceed 100 degrees Celsius, so there's no need for excessive concern. However, it's advisable to minimize consumption of water that has been exposed to prolonged sunlight. Especially for opened bottled water, it's best to consume it within 24 hours. If it has been more than 24 hours, there's a higher risk of bacterial contamination, which could affect your health.
