    First thing to do is check the gasket to see that it is fully mounted and seated all the way around.

    otherwise be a vulgar brawl.

    I dis-connected the release cable to the Ignition switch .... having it to the switch can / will cause problems ( as many here found out ). It's pretty easy to run a separate cable from the latch to an area on the right ( as you face the Spyder ) ... I only use the one I added and have not had any issues .... others here have posted pics .... look in the search box .... Mike

    Default Frunk Cover

    I had the same problem with my Spyder. It was the seal coming up and off of the Frunk box. I was actually doing/causing the problem when I was removing my jacket from the Frunk. .....

    Push down on the frunk lid same time you turn the key and it might open easier.

    Check the alignment of the locking pin on the hood when it engages into the latch (if you close it slowly, you can see it better). Applying a light coat of grease on the latch mechanism will also help.

    O/P If your scoot is new, let the dealer handle it under warranty. You paid for it use it. YMMV
