I put my key into the keyhole on trunk.. and turn it.. and nothing happen.. and tried to push up up but it sticked.. I can feel and see from the rear winshield look into the car when I play turnings the key I can see something moving left rite left rite as I move the key... But I cant open it.. what could be the problem.. please help me...

 

what are you lifting on?

are you pulling the key up, or are you grabbing the spoiler and pulling it up

i did that mistake the first time... ahahah

 

I hope english is your second language.

You might try to push down on the hatch while trying to release the latch with the key. You don't have a trunk release inside the car?

 

I'm grabbing the spoiler and pulling it uo, but its sticks..

which one is the mistake one... lol...

 

sticked? stucked? what year is your car. If its an 89, the rear lock works by pressing a tipper switch, not manually as an earlier car. This ususally quits working and needs to be replaced or adjusted. Does it open by using the switch by the dash? you may need someone to pull up on the hatch while pressing that switch.

 

There is cam arrangement of cable and rods that go from the lock cylinder to each of the two latches and you will need to spring those from the inside, just under the spare tire hump to open the hatch , then you can figure what went wrong.

 

yea english is my second language.. forgive my poor english...

 

it's sticked.. means it cannot be open.. its just sticked to the body while I can "kinda" turn in and turn back the key

and my car is 85.5 944

 

word your looking for is stuck. Did you try the electric switch down by the hood latch by your feet on the drivers side? If that doesnt work either, could have a broken cable, or need the latches adjusted.

 

I didn't know this.. so I can basically open it electronically by the thing I usually pull to open the hood? lol.. Sorry for my stupidity guys, I will try to look up for it.. lol.. and thanks

 

In that case, no problem!

I'm used to the civic forums where these kids write exactly like that, and english is their only language.

 

no, next to it. the thing that opens the hood is a lever you pull from front towards the back. the lever rubs against the side of the car.

the button for the hatch is to the left of that if you are looking at the lever. it is hard to do that since your head would be in the steering wheel.

push that button a few times and see what happens. you should hear a click in the back when you push the button.

also, try pushing down while you have the key turned in the trunk. if you push instead of pull you may get it open.

where are you from originally? and welcome.

 

as always, thank you so much Tom R.

but it's dark already now in here.. and my 944 interior lights are almost unoticeable like black color.. meaning I almost cant see anything in the car... lol.. so perhaps I will take alook at this tomorrow Lol...
And I wonder about everyone's 944 how does your interior look like at night? do you guys mostly add ups couple of cuztomize light bulb interiors?

let me know if you guys some pics of your interior with lights at night,,, I'm just curious.,

thanks

 

it's also a hatch not a trunk....

my hatch also does not open with the key but it opens with the electric switch.

 

LoL.. allrite man allrite.. it's my fault..
