Here are the solutions for the Haval H6 trunk not opening: 1. Open the driver's door of the Haval H6. 2. Pull up the handbrake of the Haval H6 to prevent the car from rolling. 3. Pull the trunk switch located on the left side of the driver's leg area in the Haval H6. 4. Press the latch of the Haval H6. 5. Lift the trunk of the Haval H6 upwards to open it. Here are some additional details: 1. The Haval H6 can also open the trunk using the remote key by holding it for more than 3 seconds until a click sound is heard. 2. When the trunk is unlocked, all car doors will also unlock, and the doors will automatically lock after the trunk is closed.
When the tailgate of the Haval H6 won't open, I've encountered this issue several times. It's usually due to the remote key battery being depleted or the lock mechanism getting stuck. First, try replacing the battery to test the remote signal. If that doesn't work, look for the small keyhole under the tailgate and use the physical key to manually unlock it. If it still won't open, check the relevant fuse in the vehicle's fuse box to see if it's blown. In winter, freezing is common—sprinkle some warm water to melt the ice. Remember not to force it open, as this can damage the sealing strips or motor. During regular maintenance, apply some lubricant to the lock to prevent rust. If the problem persists, it might be due to aging of the electronic control module—getting it checked at a 4S store is both safe and hassle-free.
My Haval H6's tailgate occasionally malfunctions, mostly due to electrical issues. When the remote fails, try replacing the battery. If that doesn't work, check if the keyhole is blocked or frozen. The fuse is located near the glove box on the passenger side—look for the one labeled "trunk." Mechanically, the latch might be stuck; gently tap the door edge to help loosen it. If you've modified it with a power tailgate, wiring problems are common—use a multimeter to test voltage or seek professional repair. For daily maintenance, keep the lock slot clean and prevent debris buildup. Preventing faults can save a lot of trouble.
Last time I was driving, the trunk door wouldn't open, which was really disappointing. Try replacing the remote battery or using the manual key first. The Haval H6 has a spare keyhole under the license plate—just twist it open. Forcing it open might cause breakage, and repairs can be expensive. If water accumulates in the door gap and freezes during rain, use a hot air blower to soften it and then open it. Don't forget to check the manual for emergency unlocking steps—safety comes first. If necessary, seek help from a repair shop.
