Anyone disconnect that auto-locking front trunk mechanism?

[ConorKnoxx]

Hello fellow Ryker riders! Lots of interesting things to browse here...
I just got a 2022 Rally Edition a few weeks ago, and loving it.
One thing I'd be curious if anyone has done, is to disconnect that auto-locking front trunk mechanism. Yeah, the one where the bike needs to be "on" that works sometimes, and sometimes it won't...
I don't need it to lock. Just latch closed and open it when I push on it.
Simple as a fuse? Or do I need to dig in an pull some wires, or remove a solenoid / pin?
Hoping it's a simple "mod" !
Thanks in advance!
Conor

My 2020 did not have that. It was an accessory, BRP part # 219401136.

Look at the locking mechanism and determine what is activated when there is power to the lock.
That should give you a clue as to how to modify it.

Sling-Mods has a manual pushbutton latch with locking key that can be installed. This eliminates the "Key On Problem" in opening the front trunck.

You can remove the side panels and frunk box . There is a wiring harness connected to the trunk lock , disconnect the frunk lock harness and it will be able to open or close anytime , bike on or off it will work manually .

I had a problem with it opening the other day but when I got off the bike and pressed from a different angle it worked fine. You can disconnect as said above!!

Yep. Remove front panels and frunk. Disconnect harness. It will work without locking.
