Trunk lock mechanism dead

Nov 13, 2021

Hey guys,

So my trunk stopped locking. My mechanic says he doesn’t have time for it. So I tried opening everything and suspect an electrical issue with the motor (because nothing happens when I try to close it with the keyless feature or the key but you hear it clicking – so I suppose the connection is working – but that metal hydraulic/electric piston in the white piece does nothing.

What’s confusing me is that small metal piece I found in the trunk and would say its from the assembly but I just don’t know.


Any help? Should I just order a new motor or do you think it’s something else?



Thank you ! 😊
