The situation when the car battery is suddenly discharged can happen to every motorist. At the same time, opening the trunk of a car, as a rule, is not difficult.
Necessary
Car, car keys, lock defroster
Instructions
Step 1
Press the trunk open button on the alarm key fob. If it does not work, it is possible that the battery is discharged, for example, due to leaving the dipped headlights on.
Step 2
If you have a domestic car brand or an imported budget one, take the car trunk key and open the lock manually. As a rule, the alarm with this impact is triggered in an abnormal mode. Remove what you need from the trunk and close it. The audible alarm will turn off.
Step 3
If your vehicle is of a different class, it usually also has a key lock on the boot lid. Find the lock. Usually, for practical and aesthetic reasons, manufacturers place the hole in a hard-to-reach place. Such a lock does not catch the eye of potential lovers to take someone else's and at the same time does not spoil the appearance of the paintwork of the car. It doesn't matter if your car has a so-called "central locking", that is, the factory centralized locking of doors, including the trunk lid. When the power supply is disconnected, all locks remain accessible for opening with a key.
Step 4
Insert the key into the trunk lock. If it is frosty outside and the key enters the hole with some difficulty, and then does not turn, then, most likely, the trunk lock of the car is frozen for some reason. Perhaps, after the car wash, water remained in it or other reasons led to this. Pour special defrosting liquid into the lock. Do this in accordance with the instructions for the product you are using.
Step 5
Try to open the trunk lock again. He must give in. If, nevertheless, the lock cannot be opened with the key, it is probably broken. Contact the service center specialists. They will pick the lock and then repair or replace it.
