Installation recommendations
Generally/typically for this type of part, it is a button integrated in the body part (rear cover) and the replacement consists of disassembling the access from the inside, disconnecting the connector and snapping/fixing the part. The exact procedure may vary depending on the specific model of the car.
1) Before assembly
- Compare the new and original part: shape, fitting, connector and connection length/construction.
- Check the condition of the used part: undamaged plastic, button flexibility, clean and straight pins in the connector (no corrosion).
- Recommended: disconnect the battery (minimizing the risk of a short circuit when handling the connector).
2) Necessary tools and materials
- Set of screwdrivers / bits (according to the type of fastening of upholstery and covers)
- Plastic crowbar for removing upholstery/clips
- Electrical contact cleaner (optional)
- Clean cloth, possibly insulating tape to secure the bundle
3) Step-by-step assembly procedure
- Secure the vehicle against movement and open the tailgate (if still possible).
- Disconnect the battery (recommended) and wait a short time for the systems to sleep.
- Remove the rear lid inner cover/upholstery to gain access to the button and wiring.
- Locate the button connector and check for frayed, loose or oxidized.
- Unplug the connector (disengage the connector fuse, do not pull on the cables).
- Release the old button from its attachment (depending on the design, it is usually clicked or screwed on).
- Remove the part and clean the seating area/surroundings so that the button fits properly.
- Install the new button into the holder and check that it is firmly seated and does not move.
- Connect the connector and make sure the fuse clicks properly.
- Before reinstalling the upholstery, perform a basic function check (after reconnecting the battery).
- Refit the covers/upholstery and all clips/screws.
- Do a final check of button function with lid closed and lid open.
-
4) Post-assembly checks and test drive/function verification
- Verify that the button responds reliably and does not “interrupt” the function.
- Check that the wiring is not pinched and that the connector holds.
- If the fault was initially intermittent, test the opening of the lid several times in a row in different positions and with slight movement of the bundle (without force).
5) The most common assembly mistakes + how to avoid them
- Damage to upholstery clips – use a plastic pry bar and work evenly.
- Pulling on cables when disconnecting – always unlock the connector and pull on the body of the connector.
- Poor button seating – before assembly, check that the part fits in the hole and is properly snapped/secured.
- Ignoring oxidation of the contacts – if there are signs of corrosion, gently clean the contacts and treat them with a contact cleaner.
Reasons why the part is damaged
- Intrusion of moisture into the area of the button and subsequent oxidation of the contacts.
- Mechanical wear due to frequent use (tired button mechanism).
- Damage to wiring or connector (looseness, broken wires, poor contact).
- Reckless handling when disassembling the upholstery or when repairing the trunk lid.
