Car trunk problem

Lever at drivers side to open the trunk , not working

  • dognite Nov 26, 2008

    I pull up the lever and trunk doesn't open

  • Scarlet1029 Dec 01, 2008

    My Mirage does sort of the same thing, only on the fuel door though. I'm pretty sure these problems are generally and mechanically the same. I have to get someone else go with me to gas station so I can open my fuel tank. Anyway, hope this helps!

Open the boot with the key and ask someone to activate the lever while you have a look on the latch in the boot. You should see the cable moving if not, it might be broken or just disconnected.
Cheers.

Open the trunk with key, lift trunk lid, on latch there is a white lever to activate\ deactivate the inside release,so if your car is unlocked no one can reach in and open the trunk.

    It isn't white, but there is a lever that had been pushed somehow. I didn't even know it was there. Thanks for the help. It solved the problem me as well.

How do i open trunk on Subaru outback wagon without key or fob/remote

no year car told. the now lost free users guide is by year.
made 1994 to present (even 1989 as legacy outback)
no country told at all
sorry cars not the same world wide.

open glove box, read the users guide? oops locked too>?
most cars sold in USA , called wagons
opening the rear gate hatch by accident driving
kids fall the ground, or cargo hits cars behind you. (so is illegall that feature)
and is never called a truck ever, in a wagon
only on sedans. a hatch or 5th door it is named.
In Europe then even call them 5 door cars.
so I am confused.
so all keys lost to the car. and can not drive it
nor open any side doors
and rear hatch is locked and valuables in cargo area to fetch, right?
I say call a locksmith
and pick the lock.
the door lock(mechanism) in the hatch internal, is accessed from the inside of the hatch open.so no why to attack it that way.

call a locksmith,

How do I prevent trunk from popping open?

Some trunks have a lever near the trunk latch on the lid to disable electrically opening the trunk. Could be a short causing the trunk open switch to open the trunk. If it doesn't open electrically via a button then you have something bent and the trunk doesn't close properly.

Trunk latch is stuck. trunk will not close. help

Its possible that it is just sticky, i dont know for sure what style your car has but if it the kind with the lever in the drivers side floorboard, get a buddy to hold the lever up for you and try to GENTLY pry the latch its self open with a flat head screw driver then spray some white lithium grease on it and work the trunk lid a few times

The trunk of my 1994 Toyota Camry will not open. The lock is in a horizontal position. Will not open with lever next to driver's seat. What can I do?

So the problem is the cylinder for the key will not turn and disengage the lock nor does the driver side release lever.

I recommend bringing the vehicle to a repair shop. This repair procedure is tricky and whom ever gets the job has to remove the rear seats to get into the trunk to get the trunk open.

How do i open the truk of my 98 toyota corrola?

There is a lever to open the trunk next to the fuel door lever under the left front side of the driver seat.

If the lever is broken or missing, check if the back seats recline, allowing access to the trunk. Crawl in and pull the lever going to the lock cylinder.

If neither suggestion works, call a locksmith.
