How to enter the trunk of a Jeep Renegade with a dead remote battery

Model: Jeep Renegade 520, MK 1, BU - Years 2014-2026
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this video, we see how it is possible to open the rear hatch of a Jeep Renegade even with the remote control battery discharged: we have to enter from the rear seats, lower the backrest and then insert it into the trunk, which we will have emptied. We will thus access the lock from the inside of the hatch, and using a small screwdriver, we will release the yellow latch on the left of the lock and always using the edge of the screwdriver, we enter the slot and push back the lever inside. This way the hatch will open.

How to Open the Bonnet on the Lancia Y

To open the bonnet on this vehicle, follow these simple instructions: first, open the driver's door and locate the lever positioned just below the dashboard, marked with an image of the vehicle with the bonnet open. Pull this lever towards you until you hear a "click" indicating the bonnet is released. Next, exit the cabin and stand in front of the bonnet to disengage the safety catch and complete the opening. To do this, slightly lift the bonnet, locate the yellow lever underneath, and pull it to the left to fully release and open the bonnet.
