Frunk

[Rookiespyder]

Hello frunk will not open by pushing in turning with key.Tried pushing on it and turning key at same time no luck. Any suggestions would be good. 2015 RTL.

If pushing it down and turning to the right dont work the cable maybe off or broken. May have to use a long screwdriver to get the frunk open

It's a little late for these two links, but you may want to make the MODS just in case you have this problem again. One link if for an emergency Frunk release and the other is for the seat release.

If this doesn't work, the frunk can be opened by propping up the corner on the right side of the hood ( do this slowly and carefully about 2 inches ) …. then you want to slide a stiff rod / dowel ( about 18inches long ) across the upper part under the hood lip to the latch lever and push it to open …. before you start this procedure you will have to pry up the blk plastic triangle on the right side....because the latch mechanism is under that plastic cover …. I suggest if you don't have a shop manual go to CHEAPCYCLEPARTS.COM and find the Fiche' that has the pics of that area ….But if you see the Latch area by looking at someone else's, you will be able to see exactly what needs to done …. this isn't easy to do but can be done with persistence …..

If you've recently put a very loaded soft side bag in the frunk and removed it there is a strong possibility you may have pulled the rubber gasket part way off. While Mikes idea is very good and from a guy who knows much more about the frunk latch problem than I, before trying it I suggest getting a second pair of hands to help. Show your assistant how the frunk/seat latch release system works with a demo in the seat. Then, with your assistant ready to work the key, press firmly simultaneously with both hands on either side of the centerline of the frunk lid and see if that allows the latch to release. You may have to move you hands about a good bit and DON'T LET YOUR ASSISTANT FORCE THE CABLE RELEASE. If the gasket has popped off you should immediately notice it when you press down on the lid.

Try pushing down on the key and turn it towards the fuel/seat release side then to the frunk side. This sometimes works for my 2015 RTS.
