Operation: How to disassemble and repair the trunk lock of a Peugeot.

In this video, we can see how to disassemble the lock of the rear door of a Peugeot car in order to repair it. First, from the inside, we open it to lift the tailgate and then try to remove the cover that holds the plastic part to the metal part of the tailgate. Once the tailgate is split, we remove the lock screws, push it inward, and from the back, use our hand to remove the lock: we need to remove the electrical contacts and now we have the lock free to work on the workbench. We remove the fixing screws and access the lock mechanism. Here we find the damaged part. It is a metal component shaped like a "U", a piece that is not available in stores and that we will have to self-construct with a piece of wire, as we see in the video. Once the piece is realigned, we see that the lock starts working again. After verifying its functionality, we can close the cover and put the lock back in place. We reconnect the electrical connectors and reposition it in its housing. We reassemble the two halves of the rear tailgate. Operation completed.

How do I unlock the automatic transmission of the BMW 3 Series?

In order to unlock the automatic transmission of the BMW 3 Series, the Start / Stop button and the lever release button must be pressed at the same time. This procedure will allow the car gearbox to be unlocked for about 15 minutes, so that in the event of an engine failure, the car can still be moved. It may be necessary to repeat the operation more than once for its success. After unlocking the gearbox, it can return to its original state by simply waiting for the aforementioned 15 minutes, or by pushing the release lever forward for a few seconds.
