Why can't the rear door of Wuling Hongguang S be opened?
2 Answers
Reasons why the rear door of Wuling Hongguang S cannot be opened: The child safety lock is engaged, causing the child lock of the rear door to be activated, making it impossible to open from inside the car. It is recommended to open the door from the outside; another possibility is that the door lock is broken, and it is recommended to go directly to a 4S dealership or a professional repair shop for maintenance. Reasons and solutions for the rear door of Wuling Hongguang S not opening: 1. Fault in the door lock mechanism itself: The probability of the door lock itself failing is very low, mostly occurring in older cars around 10 years old. No matter how high-end the car is, its door lock structure is relatively simple: it basically consists of a lock cylinder, lock block, central control motor, and operating mechanism. Solution: It is recommended to go to an auto parts market, a shop specializing in car key and lock repair, or even a car beauty and decoration shop. In most cases, they can solve the problem by replacing the central control motor or lubricating the lock block and operating mechanism; going to a 4S shop is also an option. 2. Rear passengers cannot open the door when getting off: When passengers in the rear need to get off, they cannot open the door and have no choice but to ask the front passengers to get off and help open the door from the outside. In fact, this situation is not caused by any fault; the child lock is the "culprit." Solution: Simply turn off the child lock function.
I drove a minivan for several years and encountered the rear door not opening issue a few times. The Wuling Hongguang S has a simple rear door mechanism but is prone to minor problems. The most common issue is mechanical jamming of the door lock, such as rusted lock blocks or deformed linkage rods, especially with frequent use when hauling cargo. Another possible cause is accidentally engaging the child lock. The Wuling Hongguang S's child lock is located on the door frame edge, and if triggered, the door won't open from the outside—try unlocking the central control first. Electrical issues can also be a factor; some S models come with central locking, and low battery power or blown fuses can cause door lock failure. I recommend checking if the door handle cable is loose. If you're DIY-inclined, gently pushing the door might relieve the jam. If the problem persists, visit a professional repair shop immediately to avoid damaging the door panel—safety first, and delays in cargo transport can be costly.
