What to Do When the Car Trunk Won't Lock?
1 Answers
Generally, a trunk that won't lock or close tightly is caused by the following reasons: 1. Overly stiff spring rods are used to allow the rear hatch to automatically rise when the opening switch is pressed. 2. The closing limit rubber block does not match the locking mechanism properly. 3. Faulty trunk control wiring. 4. Malfunctioning trunk hydraulic support rods. Solutions are as follows: 1. Check if the stiffness of the spring rods is appropriate. 2. Ensure the closing limit rubber block matches the locking mechanism properly. 3. Inspect and repair the trunk's electrical circuit. 4. Examine the trunk's hydraulic support rods. Replace them if any issues are found.
