It is necessary to check whether the control mechanism or the lock is faulty. If there are items such as bicycles on the trunk lid, the trunk lid cannot be opened, as it may close automatically under the influence of its own weight and additional load. If it is indeed necessary to open the trunk lid, a suitable support must be used to secure the trunk lid or the load must be removed. The following is additional information: Trunk: The vehicle trunk (also an electric tailgate) can be opened and closed electrically. There is a door close button inside the trunk door. By pressing this button, the trunk door can close automatically without human intervention. Operation method: The trunk can be opened or closed electrically or by remote control. To open the trunk, simply press the button in the car or the remote key, and the trunk will open by itself. To close the trunk, press the close button inside the trunk or the close button in the car, or the remote key, and the trunk will close by itself.

As an experienced driver, I can tell you that a trunk that won't open on a Magotan is really annoying. The most common reason is a dead remote key fob battery - try replacing it with a new one, it's quite simple. Or the trunk lock might be jammed, especially after rain when humidity causes the lock cylinder to rust and stick. Mechanical failures like loose connecting rods can also be the culprit. When electronic components such as the motor or control module malfunction, they'll show error codes that require diagnostic equipment to check. If the trunk release button fails, manually unlock it using the key under the emblem. Never force it open as this could damage more components, especially in urgent situations. For safety, if you can't open it, get professional help immediately. During routine maintenance, don't forget to lubricate the lock cylinder and clean the sensor area to prevent many issues. I once had this problem in traffic and really regretted not checking it earlier.

As someone who frequently DIYs car repairs, I've dealt with situations like a Magotan's trunk not opening. First step is to check the remote key battery - try replacing it to see the response. Then the trunk fuse might be blown - the fuse box is under the driver's seat, look for the corresponding markings. If there's unstable wiring connection, check if the plugs are loose or if wires are aged/short-circuited. For stuck lock cylinders, spray some WD-40 for lubrication. If the motor is broken, I can remove the interior trim and test voltage with a multimeter, but inexperienced people shouldn't mess with it. Once my car got stuck because debris was blocking the lock slot. DIY saves money, but safety first - if unsure, go to a professional shop for thorough inspection. Regular cleaning of the trunk area is important.

As an average car owner, it's really frustrating when my Magotan's trunk suddenly won't open. Most often, it's caused by insufficient key battery power or a faulty trunk switch. Try using the mechanical key to manually unlock at the car's rear emblem. If that still doesn't work, it might be a blown fuse needing replacement. Electronic system failures like central control module malfunctions are more troublesome. I've learned not to force things when problems occur to avoid damage. It's safer to promptly drive to a 4S shop for repairs. Regular maintenance is key to prevention, with lubrication and cleaning being crucial. After all, in daily car use, an inoperable trunk creates significant inconvenience and potential hazards.

When the right 1/3 point of the engine hood aligns with the roadside line, it indicates the vehicle is approximately 30cm away from the roadside. Continue controlling the speed with the clutch semi-engaged. During the hill start, slowly release the clutch and turn on the left turn signal. When the front of the car lifts slightly and the body begins to vibrate, keep the clutch steady with your left foot.
