What to Do When Both Inside and Outside Door Locks of Haval H6 Won't Open?
2 Answers
There are many reasons why the Haval H6's door locks won't open from either inside or outside, primarily including the car being in a locked state, car key malfunction, car battery being dead, door sticking to the sealing rubber strip, or door lock deformation. Below are the corresponding solutions for each fault: 1. Car in a locked state: If the car is locked, not only the driver's door won't open, but all four doors and the trunk generally cannot be opened either. This situation is quite simple to handle; just unlock the car. 2. Car key malfunction: A faulty car key can prevent the door from unlocking. Key malfunctions include various situations, such as the car key being out of battery, buttons on the key being broken or unresponsive, or the key not being re-decoded after battery replacement. Specific situations require specific analysis. 3. Car battery dead: If the car battery is dead while the car is locked, the remote key won't open the door. In this case, charge the battery and use the mechanical key to open the door. 4. Door sticking to the sealing rubber strip: When the door sticks to the sealing rubber strip, applying more force when opening should do the trick. 5. Door lock deformation: If the car's door lock is deformed or damaged due to impact, it's necessary to visit a repair shop for professional repair or replacement.
Last time I drove the Haval H6, I encountered a situation where the door lock couldn't be opened from inside or outside, most likely due to a dead remote control battery. Try replacing it with a new CR2032 battery. If the manual key also won't turn, the lock cylinder might be stuck—lightly spray some WD-40 lubricant or gently wipe the keyhole with a soft cloth. If the door handle won't pull, don't force it to avoid damage; instead, check the emergency release cable inside the door and give it a tug to see if it loosens. If the battery compartment is intact but unresponsive, it could be a loose wiring connection or a blown fuse—locate the door lock fuse in the fuse box under the left side of the steering wheel and replace it with a 10-amp one. Locks are prone to rusting from moisture on rainy days, so after washing the car, use a hairdryer to dry them and keep them moisture-free. If unresolved, this issue could leave you trapped, so call Haval's after-sales service hotline immediately—they offer quick on-site assistance. Simple DIY checks can save trouble, but always prioritize safety first.
