2000 Acura Integra – trunk lock broken?



Ben F asked:

I'm able to release the trunk lock from the inside, however, the trunk will not open unless I put the key into the trunk lock and then I need to turn the key to the right before I can move the lever to open the trunk. Do I see a locksmith or dealership to repair this? Thanks for your help and time.

More questions & answers:

  1. How can I remove or break the lock on a steamer trunk?
  2. Problem: Key locked in trunk of 2002 Ford Focus. Trunk button won't work. How can I get into the trunk???
  3. Trunk latch broken?

  5. Changing ignition cylinder lock? help! 2002 toyota corolla?

go to an auto body repair shop, or the dealer- expect to pay 200% more at the dealer.

I also own an Integra so I know all about this. This is a common issue which can only be fixed by replacing the lock motor regulator, however the problem may arise again. A RARE defect that Honda refuses to acknowledge as a problem.

The only things you can do is have the motor regulator replaced and hope it doesn't happen again, or live with it. Sorry to tell you there isn't a good solution.
