Why Can't the Front Door of Baojun 730 Be Opened?
2 Answers
Baojun 730 front door cannot be opened for the following reasons: Child lock is engaged: When closing the door, always check if the child lock is disengaged. If the door cannot be opened, use a flathead screwdriver to turn the child lock to the off position. Lock cable failure: When this occurs, the door cannot be opened from inside the vehicle because the malfunctioning cable directly affects the lock mechanism's operation. Hinge lock post deformation: If the door is subjected to external force, it may cause deformation of the door hinge and lock post, which is another reason the door cannot be opened. Door limiter malfunction: When this issue arises, opening the door becomes extremely difficult or impossible. The solution is to replace the door limiter with a new one to restore smooth door operation.
As someone who has been repairing cars for many years, I often see issues with the front door of the Baojun 730 not opening. The usual causes are either the door lock mechanism getting stuck or the child safety lock being accidentally activated. First, you need to determine whether it's just one door that won't open or if all doors are affected. If it's only the front door, it's likely due to dust buildup in the lock cylinder causing stiffness, or the child lock button on the door side being accidentally pressed and unable to reset. Another possibility is that the key battery is dead, affecting the remote function, or the lock hole being frozen in winter—don't force it and risk damaging the door handle. I recommend gently shaking the door handle to check for looseness, then verifying the child lock is properly disengaged. If that doesn't work, try applying a hot towel to the lock hole. If all else fails, head to a 4S shop for a professional inspection—don't attempt to dismantle the door yourself and risk damaging the wiring. Safety first, as a door that won't open unexpectedly can delay trips and increase risks. Regularly spraying some lubricant on the lock can prevent this issue, saving you from being stranded halfway.
