Yikes!!!! F3L frunk won’t open!

[DanY]

Recently bought a 2019 F3L and tried to adjust the frunk to open easier. Now, it won’t open at all!!!

I can feel the key release the latch but under no circumstances can I get the frunk lid to open. I seen some posts about a stuck frunk on a RT but nothing about the F3. Searched here, U Tube and just Googled for an answer but have had no luck

Any advice is most appreciated !!!!!!

With the assistant placing the key in the release position, manipulate the frunk lid side to side to see if it will release.

I’ve tried that without success

How about gently pressing down on the latch pin to release pressure and then turning the key. If there is too much tension on the latch it will not release.

Tried that as well.

I’ve taken my RTL completely apart w/o issues but this is a vexing problem on the F3L.

Finally!!!!!!

I was able to lift the lid just a bit to spray some lubricant on the release and got it to release.

Putting on the secondary release with bicycle brake strand wire to avoid this situation in the future!!!!
