So sorry to hear this... my lock works fine... have you contacted seller? This trunk is a really good value and works wonderfully on my honda helix.

It may not be broken. It took quite a bit of fiddling for us to figure it out. After you close the lid hold the top of the latch firmly in toward the rear of the bike. turn key. Lift lid to double check if it locked. Now that i have it figured out it locks every time. If it is really broken I would send it back. We were missing a part & they express mailed the next day. Hope this helps.

If you bought I very recently I would try several times to get a refund or replacement with the owner. I had success after writing to them repeatedly. (It would be very surprising if they can send you a replacement part, still you can ask)

To be sure we are talking about the right thing - are you talking about the metal piece the key fits into or about the plastic flat hoot that holds the lid once it is closed?

The lock is a little hard to figure out at first. Keep tinkering with it. It has a special way it has to fold back to latch

I too, also lost my keys...I called around to locksmiths and very few would even touch it--thinking that it was stolen! The only locksmith I found that would even try to open it wanted to charge me more than what I purchased the safe for to begin with. I just had to buy a new safe and be more careful with watching my battery light and NOT losing my keys! I had a friend use a "saw-zaw" to cut into it (as the metal on the top and bottom is very thin).

You need to modify your trunk lock with a electric actuator. I found touota van door lock actuator and work well

Believe you can contact weather guard and they will send new ones. Think there was a serial number attached to mine which helps them identify the correct key and lock.

I would try calling customer service. Not sure since they do not have a parts department also try Ebay

Take the rubber part off and look on the side with the lock button, you'll see a small slit you can pry it with a small screwdriver, nail file or something similar. It is hard and you'll feel like it's going to break but mine hasn't so yours shouldn't either.

http://www.gorilla-auto.com/replacement-keys-all was a simple "Google" search, which I've had to use before myself. If you don't have the key number and/or the original registration sticker, you're screwed and must get new locks AFTER you get the old ones off which is hard but not impossible to do your self as long as the lug nut well is not too restrictive. Most car dealers, especially Ford since this the brand they stock/sell should know how to get them off but I have no idea what the cost would be. Good luck!

If it arrived locked with the keys inside, that would constitute defective product and it should be replaced by Amazon. Mine likewise had the keys and cable inside but was not locked. Possibly it is just closed snugly, so I would put some extra effort into opening it. If that doesn't work, get a new one. Or possibly you're an accomplished burglar and can simply pick the lock open to access the keys...

Just switch it from your old key if you have it. I did and it worked perfect. Take the buttons as well. If not you would probably have to get a new one through the dealer if its lost.

I had mine for one day, the lid locked up so I ended up returning with $50 worth of food in it. I hope you have a better lock than I. Otherwise, toss it, don't waste your good money on buying a part that's half the cost of unit.

Turn the locking handle 1 Turn at a time clockwise and latch it in tell it is snug, do not over tighten! If that wont work send it in, They will fix the problem....

It's a little difficult to answer without having it in my hands but from experience these things get worn to the point that they have gotten thinner and the screw is designed to only tighten just so far. You might have to replace the lock and/or the screw. Felco's are great in that you can buy the replacement parts in an individual package. I think there is one package with just the screw and the lock you need. I would replace both and you should be good to go. You can go on line or to the place you bought them from and find the parts. I think you'll be fine then.

only solution that I know, is to find a key that will fit and try to jimmy it open, then replace the lock; or call a lock smith and have them pick it, and replace it after you have had it open.

I would pray that I find the key, or use a blow torch, or just call the factory! Surely the manufacturer should be able to give you some serious guidance. Bummer!

I called a couple of locksmiths listed on www.autolocksmithfinder.us, and every one of them asked more than what the dealer charges. So save your time, just go to the dealer.
