How to Temporarily Open the Tailgate of a Citroen C3 Pluriel

Model: Citroen C3 FC, FN - Years 2002-2009
Part: Body

Here’s how to temporarily open the tailgate of a Citroen C3 Pluriel: From the inside, attach two straps with small hooks to the pistons. Access these by removing the plastic cover that conceals them at the top of the tailgate. You will need to make two small holes in the cover to allow the straps to pass through. This is not a permanent solution, but if you find yourself in need, it is an empirical method to resolve an emergency. The definitive solution is to repair or replace the lift motor. However, the YouTuber recommends keeping this safety measure for an uncertain future.
