Phaeton :: Automatic Trunk Won't Lock - Latch Is Stuck In Extended Position
I did read all of the topics in the FAQ and I tried the tricks to reset the automatic trunk, yet still no luck. I notice the latch is stuck in the down postion -- could that be part of my problem? I noticed some water under the spare therefore I'm eager to get this fixed asap.
I also made a road trip on the freeway yesterday in some very nice weather and the AC wasn't cold -- I had it all the way on "Low". I'll have the dealer check that out also. Apparently the previous owner in Vegas used up all of the cars cold air.

View 1 RepliesPassat (B6) :: Trunk Latch Won't Lock
So after the temperature drop .... Next day I opened the trunk to take out my ice scraper and It didn't closed! Warm up the car ... Full speed fans , fold down rear seats to get some heat in trunk area ... 30 min... And nothing. Sprayed some wd40... Nothing !
So I decided to take apart the latch .... Removed liner ...unplug motor unplug manual opener pull wire remove latch and put some white lithium grease... Then when I take it apart found the plastic little gear and internal was pretty dry no kind of any grease inside and it was stuck.
It didn't move so put some grease in all touching areas , gear and latch itself , twist it bunch of times until everything run smooth . Here is the picture of the all mechanism inside. Pretty simple... It's like a retractile pen like. Put everything back together and is working fine for now. Let's see if it work ok from now or I might be buying a replacement part, the new revision which it end in "D"...
Passat (B5) :: Trunk Won't Lock Closed?
Yesterday in the middle of a hot summer day in NY while running errands I drove my car to the post office. I was in there about 15 -20 minutes. After coming out and driving home about 5 minutes I get out of the car click the lock button on my key fob and nothing happened. The doors were locking so I tried the trunk to see if it was open and it was. I then tried to close the trunk and it wouldn't lock closed. The lock wouldn't engage.
I have 79K+ miles so when I get my 80K tune up I guess I'll have them fix that along with the recalls and everything else. But in the meantime I'm riding around with an unsecured trunk. Luckily the trunk is heavy enough so that it doesn't fly open while I'm driving.
Celica :: 1988 - Key To Trunk Lock Won't Turn
The key to the trunk lock on my 1988 Celica won't turn. I don't have the original key. Could be that I have the valet key. All other locks (ignition, door and dash door work. I will probably get a replacement from the junkyard if I can find a car with a lock and key. Other trunk locks are interchangeable with the celica???

View 7 RepliesPhaeton :: Trunk Will Click But It Will Not Pop Up
Today I tried to open the trunk from the Remote and the Door switch, and it will not pop up, after pressing the button (remote or door) you will hear the click from the switch in the trunk itself, but nothing else, before (when the trunk was working) after the click it will pop up 5 mm that way I can slide my fingers under and lift it.
Dealer said the latch is not pushing the trunk up and they are going to replace it ? After checking the parts manual I can see there are two types of latch, with Hydraulic with Closing assist (P/N: 3D5 827 302 J) and No Closing Assist, that means that's the part they are going to change, the one with Closing Assist ?
Phaeton :: Trunk Will Not Close
Just got back from the store and the trunk will not close. Goes about 2/3 the way and stops. On inspection it seems the cable enclosure from the body to the trunk lid is not retracting(?) properly and causing the pinch protection to kick in as the cable appears to be very rigid.
Two questions: Could this be due to cold weather (less than 20F)?
Camry 2012+ :: No Auto Lock If Trunk Is Closed
My 14' SE i4 locks when the trunk is left open for about a minute. To make things a little more confusing is that the car does not auto lock if the trunk is closed, I know this because when I get to work I never lock my doors. The first time the car locked with the trunk open I thought I must have accidentally hit the lock button on the key, but I have tested this with the key left in the house.

I just purchased a used 01 Jetta GLS. It came with only 1 key and no fob. My key fits the door and ignition but does not seem to fit the trunk or the back seat lock that gives better access to the trunk. The fuel door switch works but the trunk release switch does not (no sound, haven't checked wires yet).

First problem after 3 years of use. 2012 sedan, the lock on the trunk refuses to open. Tried the key lock on the trunk lid, the remote release by the seat, and after crawling thru the back seat, the emergency release button on the lock itself. All no joy.
View 3 RepliesSonata NF (2006-10) :: No Power To Door / Trunk Lock Unless Key Is On
Ok so this started with the ignition key cylinder locking and refusing to turn. Some tri-flow, patience and judicious taps of a hammer fixed that issue, but not before i pried apart the plastic cap that keeps the little spring loaded plunger in place that actuates the ding ding when the key is inserted to the ignition. This little plunger has a couple of contacts and is wired to the little green bulb that illuminates the ring around the ignition key. Everything was just fine until i caused an arc between the exposed contacts and the side of the ignition cylinder.
Now neither the fob nor the door switch will lock or unlock the doors or the trunk unless the key is in the 'on' position. It should be hot at all times. What have I shorted out? I checked all the fuses and of course they are fine. My nightmare is that i have messed up an expensive module. I did find the plastic cap and plunger hiding under and behind the heat ducts to the rear seats and put that back together, so there are no exposed contacts, but the damage has been done.
Lexus GS 2006-11 :: 2007 - How To Repair The Trunk Lock
I have a 2007 GS 350 in which the electronic lock that you push on the outside of the trunk to open the trunk has gotten capricious because its external rubber has deteriorated. So I want to change it. The replacement part is readily available at the dealer and the parts guy said it is apparently not complicated to replace. But before doing that I need to remove the carpet padding on the inside of the trunk lid so as to get to the part to replace.
How to do that? There are what look like plastic screws holding the carpet lining in place but unscrewing does not seem to looses them. I removed one by pulling hard on it. Don't want to do the same to the rest in case that is wrong.
Also, it looks like the safety unlock handle and actual lock are obstacles to removing this lining. Do instructions exist somewhere for how to remove this carpet lining off the trunk lid?
Phaeton :: Power Trunk Won't Latch
I do have the power trunk. I went to open the trunk but instead of opening it just sort of popped up as if it weren't a power trunk. Pressing the close button does nothing and the latch is in a position so that I cannot fully close the trunk. I restarted the car a few times, tried different keys, and tried the trunk reset trick I read about in the Table of Contents.

Just picked up my car from the VW Centre, I had the Wiring Harness for Trunk Lid replaced. Now the lights within the the boot and the light in the Trunk Close button are not working.
Could this be a fuse? if so which one, left my manual in UK and I am abroad at the moment. Or could this mean a mistake has been made whilst installing the new wiring?
