Finally, my hands got around to the torsion bars, the trunk lid does not hold well when opening, sometimes you climb into the trunk for something and then suddenly the lid flies onto your back, the sensation is not the most pleasant, I think many have experienced this! After inspection, the position of the torsion bars turned out to be in the middle position, I decided to change it to extreme hardness. Let's get to work)
Adjusting the trunk lock Kalina station wagon
I think all owners of Viburnum hatchbacks already know how to adjust the trunk lid, but I’ll write it down in case it comes in handy for someone. The problem is known: to close the fifth door, you need to slam it hard, or even more than once. We solve the problem in two steps: 1) Slightly unscrew the 2 screws holding the lock hinge and move it towards you as much as possible.
Then we tighten one of the screws tightly (so that the set offset does not move) and the second screw so that the hinge turns with force, but slightly. We close the trunk lid 3-4 times, the hinge itself will align with the lock guide. Tighten the second screw until it stops.
2) There are rubber stops along the edges of the trunk lid.
We gradually wrap them by hand until the lid begins to close easily.
It is important not to twist it, otherwise it will rattle. I had to tighten them as much as possible, but with a swing the door springs back and doesn’t slam shut anyway
And if you lower it smoothly and apply a little pressure at the end, it closes almost silently. I think when I make noise, the door will become heavier and will close better.
And a little about accessories: I bought simple caps for winter stamps and a plastic mat for the trunk to make it easier to shake out debris.
This weekend I plan to start replacing the front brake pads, the stock ones squeak terribly!
From the moment I bought the Swallow, I was tormented by its trunk. The fact that it closed very poorly - it had to be closed literally on a grand scale. I read on the Internet that many people experience this. And I also found a simple recipe: unscrew the screws and adjust the position of the lock mate (it should move up and down). However, when I looked at what I had with the response part, I was upset - it was already, as it seemed to me, in the most extreme position and there was nowhere to adjust it. At least, that's what I thought... Look at this:

Two classic clutch fork springs for 20 rubles apiece solve this problem forever. :)))
Gas struts solve the problem more radically...
If the torsion bars are weakened, we’ll install gas struts!
I installed it almost immediately. Both under the hood and in the trunk. Very comfortably…
Gas struts solve the problem more radically...
The problem is radically solved by springs for 20 rubles, and it opens and closes easily with one hand. Gas stops are good only for opening.
Have you tried it, or do you just think so? I write about what I use every day. I open it with a button (it rises by itself), close it with the little finger of either hand. Everything is simple and elementary. For that I know for sure that I definitely won’t get hit in the head in windy weather, because... The lid is held in place by 2 hydraulic stops. And not springs for 20 rubles, sorry...
I tried it on my own machine. I didn’t like it and didn’t take it. Returned the springs. No wind will make a lid with a spring fall on your head, I have two layers of sound insulation + plastic casing with the AO sign, there are four springs, even on such a good mountain in the country the lid opens by itself and will not fall on your head under any circumstances. Budget - 80 rubles. The effort to close is four times less (well, maybe I’m exaggerating, the impressions have been erased over the years, at least two times less) than with gas stops, you just need to pull the handle on the trunk trim down until you hear a pop and that’s it, with the stops it doesn’t work, you just need to push the lid towards you, grab the edge from above and bring it until it closes.
cylinder replacement, adjustment and lubrication
A car lock is designed to secure doors from spontaneous opening and is an element of a passive security system. The standard Lada Kalina lock consists of a mechanical part that performs the function of locking the door and locking it, and an electronic component. The latter is responsible for remote control.
Features of standard locks
Getting to know the car begins with opening the doors. The first impression can be spoiled by careless adjustments, the use of low-quality materials or imperfect design. The entire Lada Kalina family (sedan, station wagon and hatchback) to one degree or another has these disadvantages. These disadvantages appear even with slight wear of parts, especially the rear doors of the car.
On modifications of the new generation of Kalina, including the “Lux” package, silent locks are installed. Instead of a metal locking device, they use wear-resistant plastics, which significantly improve the operation of the mechanism and provide more comfortable operation. But complaints about poor adjustment of moving body parts persisted in relation to new models. Car owners are also unhappy with the difficulty of opening the rear doors.
Troubleshooting methods
List of common malfunctions of the standard door lock of the Lada Kalina:
- difficulty opening;
- the key is not fully inserted into the cylinder;
- lock jamming;
- jamming of the locking mechanism;
- metallic knocking when driving on a bad road.
Replacing the Kalina door lock cylinder is necessary if it is damaged. First you need to remove the left front door trim, then insert the key into the lock and turn it, if possible. Then you should press the cylinder mechanism lock with a knife blade or a thin plate and, pulling the key, pull out the cylinder from the outside. Replacement on the right follows a similar procedure. The difference is that the latch is located on top of the mechanism, in contrast to the driver's door, where it is located at the bottom.
A metallic knock that occurs when a car moves on an uneven road is caused by wear of the locking mechanism bracket and loss of elasticity by the seal. These defects can be easily eliminated by replacing the lock assembly and seal. Jamming or jamming of the locking mechanism can be eliminated by repairing the components. Applying lubricant is often sufficient.
Instructions for replacing the lock
You can replace the lock on Kalina's door yourself using standard tools. To do this, you need to remove the trim and disconnect the fixing bracket. Then you need to dismantle the door opening handle by unscrewing three screws and removing the lock switch rod. Now you need to unscrew the lock fastenings and push the mechanism inside. While holding it, remove the switch button rod. Once you have access to the desired assembly, pull out the latch and disconnect the electrical wiring harness connector.
After freeing the lock from mechanical and electrical contacts, you can remove it. The standard locking mechanism is a non-separable design, so if it breaks, it should be replaced with a new one.
Door locks prevent unauthorized entry into the vehicle. Along with the requirements for operational reliability, they must provide comfortable operating conditions: easy to close and open without creating unnecessary noise. Most malfunctions or irritations can be resolved independently using the recommendations provided.
Hacking the trunk lock
But what to do if you don’t get into the cabin, or you don’t get into the trunk from it? The larva will have to be rolled up. To do this, you will need a bayonet-type screwdriver, preferably with a square screwdriver at the end - drive it into the cylinder and turn it out until the locking plates inside the cylinder burst and it begins to rotate freely. This is an extreme method, after which the larva will have to be replaced.
If you have time, the tool for opening the cylinder is made from durable hexagons or “torxes” of a curved type: carefully, without overheating the metal, we grind one end until it gives it a shape similar to the shank of a key, after which we drive the resulting tool into the cylinder
Video: How to open the trunk of a VAZ 21099 without a key
The main problem when roughly opening the cylinder is that it is often not the cylinder that rotates, but the metal of the trunk lid itself, the grooves of which hold the base of the cylinder in place. On a VAZ of the “classic” family, you will most likely turn the lock on the door rather than roll the cylinder. After this, it is problematic to install a new one - the way out to restore functionality would be to install a plug in the deformed hole, and electromechanical drives with 5-10 kilograms of force on the locking and opening rods.
I ran into a problem. I parked in one place, I pressed the lock button on the key fob, but nothing. Does not work. And this way and that, I jumped from all sides for about 20 minutes. Well, I think the battery died. At the same time, the car starts and everything else works, but the transmitter works. And the icon on the dashboard flashes that the key is visible. We need to do something. I think I’ll close it with my hands and get on with it. I locked all the doors and locked the driver's with the key. And here the actual question of the topic arose. I re-read the manual - silence, just how to open it if the battery is dead. In general, I left it open. Around the house everything worked as it should. Perhaps there was some interference in the frequency of operation of the key fob, but the very fact of closing the trunk in manual mode takes place be.

Adjusting the trunk lock on a Lada with your own hands
July 31, 2021 Lada.Online 14,599
Is the trunk difficult to close or are the gaps between the trunk lid and the bumper too large/small? These are signs of an out of adjustment lock. Its adjustment on all modern LADA cars (XRAY, Vesta, Largus, Granta, Priora, Kalina Niva 4x4) is carried out in the same way. There are no fundamental differences.
Malfunctions that owners of LADA cars (and other car brands) encounter when the trunk lock is not adjusted:
- the trunk does not close properly (you have to slam the trunk lid several times);
- the trunk does not open;
- large trunk gaps;
- The trunk closing sensor does not work (the indicator on the instrument panel is on);
- During driving, extraneous noises appear (rattling, whistling, etc.).
You will need: a 10mm wrench, a Phillips screwdriver or Torx T40.
How to adjust the trunk lock:
- Remove the plastic cover by unscrewing a couple of fastening screws (on some models, for example, Lada XRAY).
- Mark the position of the loop for a possible return to the original state.
- Loosen the two bolts securing the lock hinge.
- We move the hinge (forward/backward, up/down), achieving an easy and tight closure of the trunk.
- Upon completion of the adjustment, tighten the screws securing the lock hinge with a torque of 22 Nm.
Lada Largus has two tailgates. Not only the bracket on the body can be adjusted, but also the lock latches on the doors themselves. The process is similar: loosen the mounting screws, move the latch or bracket, tighten the screws:
Have you ever had to adjust the door locks yourself? Let us remind you that in order to extend the life of locks and seals, they should be lubricated regularly. By the way, do you know how to make the trunk lid of a sedan (Grant or Priora) or station wagon/hatchback open automatically?

How to diagnose the trunk door lock of a Lada Granta liftback
During the operation of Lada Granta liftbacks, owners may encounter a situation where, while driving, the door open indicator lights up on the instrument cluster. Or, when the fifth door is closed, the light in the trunk is on and the car cannot be set to alarm. To identify the causes of these malfunctions, LADA dealership centers use information letter No. 87-19 “On diagnostics of the tailgate lock of Lada Granta liftback cars.”
The diagnostic technique is as follows
:
1. Open the tailgate (the trunk light is on), note that in this case a two-position lock 21910-6305010-10 (84500-02338) is used.
2. With the door open, manually close the lock 2 clicks using a screwdriver with a diameter of up to 6 mm, moving it beyond sector “B”. Closing the lock by 2 clicks is shown by the levers “A” located at the right point of movement until it stops according to the photo below:
Check that there is a guaranteed gap between the emergency trunk release lever and the inner panel of the tailgate. The gap should be from 0.3 mm to 0.9 mm.
If there is no guaranteed gap between the lever and the door panel, or the lever is jammed, with the formation of rubbing on the lock lever, it is necessary to remove the lock to modify the plane of the plastic lever. Using a mechanic's tool, remove 0.5 mm of the width of the lever to eliminate harmful contact causing blocking of the lever and blocking of the limit switch.
If, after carrying out the above actions, the lighting in the trunk when closing the trunk lock manually with a screwdriver for two clicks with the tailgate open, while the interior doors are closed (make sure the door limit switches are in working order, if any, taking into account the configuration), and the hood is closed (make sure the limit switch is in good condition if it is included in the package), dismantle the trunk lock and check the limit switch circuit along the circuit of pins No. 1 – 2 for opening when the lock is closed.
If the lock's limit switch does not open the circuit at pin No. 1–2 when closing it, replace the lock and consider the lock to be a defective part.
If there is no closed circuit at pins No. 1–2 when opening the lock, also replace the lock and consider the lock to be a defective part.
3. If the lock is in good working order after carrying out diagnostics according to point 2, and the defect “the light is on in the trunk” is absent when the lock is manually closed with two clicks on the open tailgate, but the defect is present when the tailgate is actually closed, while the door is in the gaps has no deviations relative to the body, and it is impossible to determine visually how many clicks the tailgate lock is closed; it is necessary to adjust the door lock latch.
Let us remind you that you will find other instructions for self-repairing Grants in this section.
Electric trunk lock drive: operating features
Let's start with the fact that the option that allows you to open the trunk door from the passenger compartment appeared relatively recently. As a result, owners of cars equipped with this function have not yet fully gotten used to the new product. In order to activate the electric trunk lid and open it, you must press the corresponding button. There is nothing particularly complicated, but the procedure itself is simplified, especially in cold weather.
Most car owners begin to mercilessly pour boiling water on it, heat the key with a lighter, and spray various defrosters into the core. And if the car had an electric trunk lock, this problem would be solved by itself.
With an electric drive installed on the vehicle, you can open and close the tailgate using a key. Previously, only cars produced abroad were equipped with such an addition. However, recently, most domestic vehicles have an electric trunk opening as one of their standard devices. If it happens that the purchased car is not equipped with such a useful option, there is no need to be sad, because you can install the electric tailgate with your own hands.
What to do if the trunk still won't close?
Have you already cursed hundreds of times, but haven’t found a way out? Unfortunately, the lock and fastening loop are not always the only ones to blame for the Lada Granta’s trunk not closing.
The reasons for this grief may also be the following:
- the trunk is displaced (by the way, this can be seen by the different height of the cavity between the trunk lid and the body)
- the rubber bands located on the body where the trunk lid is attached interfere with the result of a tear or breakage
- The lock gets stuck when the trunk is opened using a button from the interior
Sometimes pressing this button provokes a glitch in the trunk lock, and the trunk refuses to close
You should pay attention to this and press the button again after several unsuccessful attempts to release the lock. In all such cases, damaged parts should be replaced, patched up in some places, and karma cleaned out in others.
In all such cases, damaged parts should be replaced, patched up somewhere, and karma cleaned somewhere.
This article is my bitter experience and may not fully correspond to yours. Therefore, I will be grateful if you leave your stories on solving the problem of closing the trunk.
Still, you shouldn’t judge the car as a whole because of such trifles. Similar sins can be found on foreign cars and on our other cars.
It happened after opening with the button. The drive “clicked” in forced mode. Can it be treated with WD?
I simply unscrewed the hinge from the body, turned it 180 degrees and screwed it back, everything began to close normally
I did as Sergey said, everything began to close perfectly!
PS Thanks for the tip!
What does Putin and an unlocked trunk have to do with it? I can say something else - how many Grants were sold, both with comments and officially - 4 cases of the trunk not being closed. And everyone is trying to promote themselves with the help of off. persons Funny! And any mechanism, if it is new, does not always work properly. It needs some work - any mechanic will tell you that.
I could read a book about this without fidnnig such real-world approaches!
I've been driving it for a month and the trunk won't close once. I did the following: with the trunk open, I simply pressed the trunk release button again)) and everything closed =) and in general, so that nothing sticks, I think you shouldn’t hit it on the hinge and swear loudly - this is OUR car, it never works perfectly )))
Dear “Soulman,” you can sell grants, viburnums, largus and priors all your life and be proud of it. But the question is different, why don’t foreign cars, even cheap ones, have the same problems as “our” cars do. And I know from my own experience that 2 cars “our” ones assembled at the same factory and at the same time will differ and the parts and mechanisms will, as you put it, “grind in” until the car owner scraps it.
the trunk did not close. I unscrewed it, turned it 180 degrees and the problem disappeared. And that fool, the one in the video slamming the trunk lid, let him knock on his dome if he doesn’t cook
There are rubber bumpers on the inside of the trunk lid along the edges; you need to adjust them and, if necessary, adjust the hinge. It helped me and now it’s easy to close.
I also just turned the hinge 180 degrees and the trunk began to close normally.
The problems with the trunk lid lock have passed me and I'm glad about it. In general, you need to love your car and it will reciprocate.
I turned it 180 degrees and everything is OK.
You might think that everything in our country is good, only one “Granta” is bad... What a country and cars are like that. Therefore, Anatoly said correctly, you need to love your car, and it will answer you in the same way. For me personally, everything works on the Grant. no problem, and I really like it, and my friend also works on Grant, we bought cars together...on the same day.
Adjusting the bottom of the door
First of all, it is necessary to establish access to the inside of the lock from the outside. To do this, the glass is completely lowered. The door closes with light blows on the bottom of the casing. During the process, the size of the gap in the lower part of the structure is controlled
When the correct result is achieved, the door is carefully opened and slammed shut. If necessary, repeat the procedure
It is worth monitoring the force of impact and correcting the geometry of the doorway.
This method is used at manufacturing plants at the final stage of car production. The only difference from regulation at home is the availability of technological devices and tools.
The rear doors of the Lada Grant do not open from the inside, what should I do?
Car: Lada Granta. Asked by: Maria Cherkashina. Question: The child was playing around, now I can’t open the back door.
Boys, save the girl! I can't open the back door at all.
Trying to open the back door
The child played around with the door and now it doesn’t open from the inside at all. And it opens from the outside. The right one does not open, but the left one does. What to do?
The rear doors do not open - the child lock is “activated”
An expert on Lada cars with many years of experience. I own a Lada Granta car, I collect cramps based on the Priora.
Sometimes I stay overnight in the garage. My wife is more jealous of cars than of women.
Protection against opening the rear door from the passenger compartment is available on every car. It's called child protection.
On the Lada Granta, in my opinion, this function is implemented better than on previous cars of the VAZ family. Then the child could actually accidentally pull the lamb in the door, but now, to activate it, you need to use a flat object, but more on that below.
Activating the child protection function
- There is a special plastic lever in the door body that must be turned to the right (clockwise) - then the door will not be able to open from the passenger compartment.
- To return everything back, you need to open the door from the street (external handle) and return the lever to its original position.
You can activate it using the ignition key, but it is better to use a screwdriver for this
How to make silent locks on a Priora: manual installation of new silent locks on a Priora
You can use a pin during installation. Its use will allow you to hold the internal lock, the “failure” of which will require removing the door trim, and also significantly speed up the installation process.
The installation of the locks themselves occurs in several stages. In the first stage, the lock is threaded with the top part (hole) through the above-mentioned pin, resulting in the inner lock in place, and the lower bolt of the silent lock is already connected to the inner lock.
The inner and outer lock are fixed, meaning there is no need for further use of a pin. All that remains is to tighten the top part of the lock. Guided by these instructions, the locks are installed on the remaining three doors, and no additional questions should arise regarding how to make silent locks on the Priora.
After installing each of the locks, it is necessary to check their operation without taking into account the installation of the silent bolt. If excessive force is applied when opening/closing the door, the new lock requires adjustment. The lock is adjusted using the counter part of the silent lock mechanism.
At this point, the installation process is almost complete, and all that remains is to put plastic covers on each of the locks. The result of the work carried out to replace standard Priora locks, although silent, with original silent Ptimash locks will not be long in coming. The ringing of doors completely disappears, and the opening/closing mechanism works like on a foreign car.
A more worthy result can only be obtained in conjunction with additional door noise, as well as the replacement/installation of vertical seals. Today, the price of silent locks on Priora allows you to replace them almost immediately after purchasing the car.
How to close the trunk?
The roomy 480-liter trunk, although it seems problem-free, is weak in one area - the loop into which the trunk lock is latched barely holds on and does not always go where it should.
You should pick up the tools (swearing loudly about the shitty pre-sale preparation at the dealer and the entire Russian auto industry is allowed), tighten everything that can be tightened. And the loop from the body, where the trunk lock is hooked, also needs to be corrected. We take a Phillips screwdriver, unscrew (yes, unscrew!), the entire structure of the hinge, we see that the hinge itself is wobbly, that it is not securely fastened with anything (we are swearing again)). )
This miracle can be corrected only by additional hammering with a hammer (when we hit, we imagine the face of the engineer at the factory during the design, and the worker who tightened all the bolts), the screws are as tight as possible. If you want the trunk to close even more easily, you should lubricate the contact points between the hinge and the lock with any industrial grease.
Before being clamped, the noose staggered like a drunken drunk in an open field
That's all. If after all the manipulations your trunk still closes every other time, read on:
Door adjustment process
To eliminate defects in the operation of door elements, it is necessary to find out the cause of its occurrence. In some cases, treating moving parts of the mechanism with lubricants helps. The seals between the trim and the body are subject to wear and tear, and they also require replacement periodically. If manipulation of the replaced elements is not enough, technical intervention is required. Regulation is necessary for the following factors:
- the gap in the extreme part of the structure causes the door on the Kalina car to not close tightly;
- The problem is caused by a faulty door lock.
Violation of the geometry of the structure in the doorway is the most common cause of the defect. Gaps can appear in any part of the joint with the body. Most often this happens from above and below. The adjustment in these cases is similar, but has minor differences.
Adjusting the bottom of the door
First of all, it is necessary to establish access to the inside of the lock from the outside. To do this, the glass is completely lowered. The door closes with light blows on the bottom of the casing. During the process, the size of the gap in the lower part of the structure is controlled
When the correct result is achieved, the door is carefully opened and slammed shut. If necessary, repeat the procedure
It is worth monitoring the force of impact and correcting the geometry of the doorway.
This method is used at manufacturing plants at the final stage of car production. The only difference from regulation at home is the availability of technological devices and tools.
Adjusting a door with a large gap at the top
Failure to correctly position the door is not always due to a manufacturing defect. The appearance of an enlarged gap in the upper part of the doorway is often associated with natural processes. Poor quality roads, driving on rough terrain, and heavy weight of the structure lead to the door sagging relative to its original position.
Restoring the position of the element relative to the body is carried out by a similar physical impact in a state of incomplete closure. The glass goes down completely. The door closes with one click. In this state, the size of the gap is regulated by moving the door toward or away from you, depending on the force applied.
Alignment is considered successful if the gaps are the same on all sides. The front doors are calibrated in the same way.
With heavy trunk doors of Lada Kalina hatchbacks and station wagons, the procedure is more complex and technological. The design is designed in such a way that when slammed, the lock tongue snaps into a metal bracket. The specific fastening of the lock with bolts creates additional instability. The bolts should be found and tightened with a screwdriver. The lock is coated with silicone grease. Checking for opening and closing will indicate further actions. If the defect has not been eliminated, rubber stops are used to strengthen the drive traction of the luggage lock. However, you should not overuse force to install them, as this may have the opposite effect.
The tightness of the trunk closure is also affected by new factory seals. They have increased density for a longer service life. Over time, the material is developed, the severity of the closure decreases.
Ways to remove trunk lock
A car trunk is a specific space in the cabin that is intended for transporting goods. The lock that is part of the central locking system, although a reliable element, can sometimes fail. The method described above of getting into the trunk of a car through the interior and then opening a faulty lock is, of course, good. However, due to the design features of some cars, it is not always possible to use this method.
It is best suited for station wagon models where there are no dividing partitions. But owners of sedans were much less fortunate.
In any case, it is very important to determine the reason why the trunk lock is jammed. And as already noted, first of all, breakdowns are associated with dirt getting into the mechanism. In addition to this, foreign objects can get into the lock. If your own attempts to pull out a foreign object or clean the mechanism of dirt do not lead to anything, then you will have to sign up for one of the car service stations, where experienced specialists will perform a series of manipulations with the faulty lock to return the mechanism to normal operation.
However, it is not uncommon for the problem of a malfunctioning luggage lock to be associated with temperature changes outside the window. This problem becomes especially relevant after visiting a car wash during the winter months. Moisture is not completely removed from the sealing rubber and, when frozen, leads to the fact that the luggage compartment lid does not open. Naturally, in order to solve the problem you do not need to go to the service center. It’s enough just to find a warm garage or box, drive the car into it for a few hours and, after thawing the rubber band, remove any remaining moisture from it.
It is important to remember that any work must be carried out without panic and with appropriate care. Only in this way can you get a high-quality result and save yourself from additional financial costs.
If the trunk lid lock is completely jammed and none of the possible solutions to the problem does not help, then you will have to open the door from the passenger compartment. This option is well suited for people with a medium or thin build. But what should a person whose height reaches two meters and whose weight exceeds a hundredweight do? Such people will have to ask for outside help. But, in any case, you also need to know how to open the trunk lock from the passenger compartment. In the first option, to independently carry out the measures that allow you to open the lock. In the second option, to correctly advise the person who will be doing this.
To solve the problem, you need to get into the car through the left rear door. We lay the backs of the rear row seats on this side. Through the resulting “window” we pull out all unnecessary objects from the trunk, which in the future may interfere with free access to the lock mechanism. To work, you will need to find a long flat-head screwdriver, a wrench, and an asterisk-shaped socket wrench. To gain access to the locking mechanism of the trunk door, you will have to move the decorative trim to the side. It is almost impossible to completely dismantle it with the tailgate closed.
The casing is secured using plastic latches and several screws that are screwed into the metal base. Both screws are located in the corners of the casing and several more fasteners must be found in the handle located on the panel. To remove fasteners, you will need the help of a wrench and an asterisk wrench. We will need a screwdriver to quickly and accurately remove the decorative panel from the door.
First of all, we unclip the fasteners that are located at the top of the casing. Now we carefully move down, disconnecting each latch. As soon as the panel is moved to the side, a wire lever will be revealed in all its glory, which is the main tool for unlocking the button and opening the lock mechanism.
This part is in a vertical position and very close to the windshield wiper motor. To finally unlock the button and open the tailgate, you need to simultaneously press the lever and push the door out. If the lever does not respond to the applied efforts, you can use a hammer with a wooden handle. It is with the handle that you need to press the lever and the door will open.
Drive assembly
This is not to say that the assembly procedure is overly complicated. Any motorist who knows how to handle the tool can do everything. Of course, you will still have to work with a soldering iron to properly connect the wires and diodes to the relay and control device.
It is recommended to install the drive with control from the standard alarm; the work procedure is as follows:
- First you need to modify the trunk lid drive mechanism. To do this, remove the electric motor and turn it around so that it can function along the rack. All excess parts of the plates must be trimmed using a grinder.
- Make a fastening bar from perforated steel.
- Install the racks and electric motors of the drive mechanisms on the perforated strip. The entire structure must be placed on the body panels. It is advisable to strengthen the installation sites in advance.
- One edge of the mechanism that is not used must be secured to the holders on the lid.
- Adjust the mechanism.
After installing the drive elements, you can begin connecting the electronic components.
You have to eat more porridge and press the trunk release button longer
It’s a joke about the porridge; girls don’t have to eat it in large quantities. But about the button - that's right! This is a known disease of the Lada Granta car.
Button for opening the trunk in the cabin
This problem occurs due to the fact that the trunk opening button was pressed briefly, so to speak.
You just need to hold the button down for about a second and there won't be any problems.
If the trunk does not close
If the trunk does not close, then press and hold the button longer
If your trunk does not close, you need to press the open button for more than one second. Almost all Grant owners know about this, as they have encountered such a situation. Some people found a specific problem by poking, others tried everything and the problem went away.
There is no need to twist anything here!
The trunk release button can also be operated from the key fob
In this situation, opening the trunk with the key will not help. Also, some alarm systems can open the trunk using the key fob, and if a problem arises with this opening, then it is necessary to increase the interval (pulse) of the button!
We install a lock from Lada Kalina on VAZ 2109, VAZ 2108
I don’t know about anyone, but the stock lock on the “chisel” just got me. I'm tired of the fact that the spare parts come with blatant junk, and the fact that sometimes it's simply impossible to adjust it so that it closes and opens normally with an electric drive, it's so crooked and crooked.
I think that those who think that my hands are crooked and I cannot adjust the lock should hold their tongues. Over the course of three years of operation, I changed 8 (if not more!) locks and 2 or 3 counter parts. I regulated everything. I put washers, nuts and other hardware, removed gaskets, always made all the adjustments, looking from the inside, checked the cover for crookedness, looked at the hinges... everything was useless. The locks simply fell apart on the move after 2-3 months of use, the pins flew out, the tongues broke, etc., and my trunk lid flew up during the next jump on the bumps... very cool, especially on the highway at a speed of over a hundred and with a trunk full of junk. Okay, those were the lyrics, let's get down to business.
We will need: -VAZ 2108-09-13-14 "Samara" with a hatchback body (aka "chisels"), -the owner of the above "chisels" who is fucked with a stupid stock lock (or the one who will do all this), - time, -lock from Lada-"Kalina" (catalog number 1118-5606010-10), -a little corner 30 x 30 mm, 1-2 mm thick. You need about 10-15 cm.p., - an M6 x 50-60 bolt (for the mating part) or a mating part to the lock, - two M6 x 25-35 bolts + 4 M6 nuts + washers, - the trunk lock motor reducer (i.e. ... almost any motor, as long as it is reliable, the slightest effort will be enough, since the lock is opened by a spring inside it, and not a drive), - a little cable or rod for connecting with the lock + fittings, - wires, button, relay, terminals, heat shrink – everything for connecting the lock opening motor. -a little paint.
Tools: -electric drill, -angle grinder (aka "grinder"), -files and needle files, -hacksaw for metal ("grinder" is not convenient to work everywhere), -spanners and open-end wrenches for 8 and 10, -vise (it’s hard to do without them) – the parts are too small), - crimp for terminals, - pliers, - lighter (shrink heat shrink),
So, initially there was an idea to adapt the door lock (more precisely, the outer part) from the same “chisel” (I changed the locks to silent ones, so I had as many as 4 of them lying around unnecessary). The idea was born while looking at foreign-made trunk locks. In essence, they are approximately the same as door ones (meaning car doors, of course). The idea was not only born, it was even almost realized, see photos 01 and 02. The remains of the stock lock served as a bracket.
The idea transformed when I went to a parts store. I came in with the goal of finding something more suitable... or the counterpart of the door lock from the “chisel”. Searches on the Internet, by the way, didn’t yield anything special. Most of the links were, alas, dead. Only conversations on forums, I haven’t seen any photos at all, because... The links, again, don't work. Maybe I was looking poorly... Well, okay, we’ll do it ourselves)))
And then I saw it - a lock from a Kalina, cat. number 1118-5606010-10. Just what you need. It is similar to a door lock, it can be opened with a cable, the tongue is “covered” with plastic, as on the silent door locks mentioned above. True, there was no “answer” in the store, but it’s not so scary, I made it myself, then I’ll buy my own one. Photo of the castle without modifications – 03 and 04.

The trunk was opened using the alarm.
But I couldn’t close it. I thought the ice was interfering, I scraped everything off, but there was no effect. I pressed the button from inside. Nonsense. Has anyone had this? I had this happen, I pressed the button in the cabin, it closed, I don’t know why
it happens... it's some kind of crap
It happened a couple of times before too. I pressed the button again and it closed. And this is in no way. Because of such garbage, I don’t want to go to the service center, and I don’t have time.
press the button in the cabin and hold it for 2-3 seconds
Does not help. You'll have to go to the service center. Wash the car again for 300 rubles. And wait in line...
I observed such a situation with the driver of a grant driver of a driving school, a guy was standing in pain, he went up to him and said, he then pushed this trunk with such force and it locked
