The modern world is such that even in your own yard, leaving a car with a faulty lock is quite a dangerous thing, let alone long-distance travel. If you notice characteristic symptoms of a part malfunction, you need to immediately take control of the situation. This article will cover the trunk lock of the VAZ 2114. Read about faults, replacement and installation in the article.

Instructions for dismantling and replacing the mechanism

1. Buy a suitable device. You can choose the appropriate part for your Lada Granta car. This is a good option because it has an electric drive and a limit switch. Unfortunately, when installing a part of this option, you will have to install your own fastening; you can make it from a small steel angle, for example, 40 * 40 * 4 mm.
2. The corner can be cut with a suitable tool, for example, a grinder. It is important to consider the size of the purchased device, as well as the location where it will be installed.
3. The manufactured metal part must be coated with a suitable color.
4. Then plug the hole from the previously installed lock. To do this, you can use the plug from the manual window lifter. It also needs to be painted the same color.
5. If during installation of the product it was necessary to get rid of the wiper, you can use the wires coming from it and connect one to the drive of the part, and the second to the connector of the mounting block.
6. Return the bracket and tighten the finished fixation device.

Occurrence of a problem

The new-fashioned body design of many VAZ models was the beginning of problems. In many cars, owners notice unpleasant noises and pops from the rear of the body. These loud noises occur when the car goes over bumps and the trunk door begins to knock. Most likely, this defect resulted from the fact that the car was tested in conditions suitable for travel - on a flat road surface. Under ideal conditions, it is difficult to notice that the locking plate or stem is not in the correct position. In addition, the gap usually appears only after driving on poor-quality surfaces due to vibration that occurs at the joints.

Another reason is wear of the closing mechanism. Because of this problem, the trunk of the VAZ 2114 opens while driving. The same situation occurs in other models. This happens because the locking tooth of the lock is either broken or almost completely worn out. It would seem that what’s wrong with this, because you can go and change the lock for a new one. But the problem will remain unless the approach to it is changed. The main locking mechanism must be replaced with a different type of device.

Also, the reasons that the trunk opens spontaneously while the car is moving may be the breakdown of silumin parts or wear of the seal.

In any case, the mechanism will have to be changed, but to what?

Withdrawal procedure

1. The first step is to remove the trunk door trim.
2. Using a 10 mm socket wrench, unscrew the 2 nuts securing the lock to the door
3. We remove the lock.

A “mass” wire is attached to one of the nuts. When installing the lock, be sure to screw it into place.

4. Using a 10 mm spanner, unscrew the bolts securing the lock retainer.

5. Remove the clamp together with the adjusting pads.

6. Reinstall the lock and latch in reverse order. After installation, the lock must be adjusted.

Replacing the trunk lock

Useful video:

In a situation where replacing the spring or treating the lock with chemical lubricants does not help, the device should be completely replaced. The price of a new luggage compartment lock for a “four” is about 300-500 rubles. If after installing a new part the trunk does not close, make adjustments. The step-by-step process for installing a new locking mechanism looks like this:

• Remove the pistons from the decorative door trim, and then dismantle it;

• Unscrew the two bolts and thereby free the device from the car, but when unscrewing, keep in mind that under one of them there are several terminals, one of which goes to the door wiper gearbox, and the other to the brake light.

Once the old trunk lock has been removed, you can begin installing the new one. When reassembling, do not forget about the previously removed terminals. After completing the adjustment or replacement, treat the structure with protective chemicals. If the seal does not fit tightly, moisture often gets in there, which quickly damages the structure.

Adjusting the tailgate lock.

1. We unscrew the lock lock so that it can be moved with light force.
2. Now you need to close the door and look through the glass to ensure that the lock spike is opposite the latch socket.
3. After this, we move the latch all the way back and slam the door. This will ensure the lock lock is in the optimal position.
4. Open the door and tighten the bolts securing the clamp in the position in which it was installed.
5. It is also necessary to check that the door closes. If the door does not close tightly. then you need to remove the adjusting plate from under the clamp.
6. If the door closes too tightly, on the contrary, you need to add a plate under the latch.

You can make the adjustment plates yourself from tin or sheet iron.

How to remove an old lock

The process of removal and replacement on hatchback (2113, 2114) and sedan (2115) cars is different, although the principle of operation is the same.

The procedure for removing the mechanism on a VAZ-2114

:

1. Remove the plastic cover. The upholstery is attached to 10 pistons, which just need to be pryed off with a screwdriver. Access to the mechanism will open.

Removing the trunk lid

1. Unscrew the 2 bolts with an “8” key. The action must be carried out carefully; on one side there are terminals responsible for the windshield wiper and brake light on the spoiler.

Unscrewing 2 bolts

1. Remove the faulty element.

If the lid does not close, adjustment is required.

Removing and replacing the trunk lock of the VAZ-2115 sedan

:

1. Remove the plastic cover by unfastening the pistons.
2. Access to the faulty part is open; the drive rod needs to be straightened. Unscrew the corresponding screw (not all the way). Remove the rod from the bushing.

Trunk lid lock drive

1. Go to the cylinder lever. Remove the mechanism rod and remove it.
2. Unscrew the 3 nuts of the product and dismantle it. Unscrew the cylinder mounting bolt and remove.

Twisting the fastening nuts

What actions should be taken if the key is left in the car?

The first question that a driver asks himself when he discovers that the car key is left in the cabin: how to open a VAZ 2114 in an easy and simple way without a key? The easiest way would be to call home and ask for an additional set of keys. If there is no one at home, you can call a special service that provides such services, but you will have to pay about 3 thousand rubles for such a service. But it’s realistic to find other ways to open a car without keys:

1. Using wire of appropriate length. Using a rigid wire at least 70 cm long, you can easily open the door. For this method, you should use a metal ruler, but such an object can rarely be seen nearby, of course, if the car owner does not steal other people's cars. Therefore, we will look at opening car doors using a wire. So, having found a piece of metal wire, you need to do the following:

• make a kind of bend at one end, which should resemble a hook for a fishing rod;
• the end with the bend must be carefully inserted between the seal and the glass, trying to pick up the door rod. Of course, such an operation is not so simple, and most often it is not completed successfully the first time. But one of the attempts will definitely succeed and help open the car door;
• You should not try to use thin wire for this method, as it will simply bend, and a thicker product will not be able to be inserted into a small slot.

1. Using a thin fishing line, but always strong. In a similar way, you can try to open a car door using a fishing line, which should be thin and at the same time strong enough. A small loop is made at the end of the fishing line, and this end is pushed into the gap between the body and the door seal. Having inserted the fishing line inside, you need to move it in different directions until it wraps around the loop of the door flag. Next, all that remains is to pull the ends of the fishing line so that the flag rises up. This method of opening doors is suitable if the car is equipped with a special flag, with which the car door is closed.
2. You can also try to open the door of the VAZ-2114 using a tennis ball in which a hole is made. To do this you need to do the following:

• press the tennis ball firmly against the car door lock, making sure that the hole where the key is inserted exactly matches the hole of the tennis ball;
• press the ball sharply so that a stream of air enters the inside of the castle;
• the air that gets inside should raise the door flag, which will help open the car door.

Many car owners claim that opening the trunk is much easier, and a key from another VAZ model will help with this. To do this, you just need to contact the driver of the other car and ask to use his keys.

Of course, you can simply break the glass, but in the future you will have to spend money on a new one, and not everyone will be able to break tempered glass the first time. In addition, this method of opening the door often leads to injury, so when deciding on it, you must first protect your face and hands.

The process of installing a lock on a VAZ 2109

This is where the fun begins - either I’m lucky, or others have had less luck, but it turned out that the lock from Kalina fits perfectly onto the bracket, which is already screwed to the boat under the rear wiper motor. True, I had to bend the petals a little and drill holes (from the trunk side). I found a photo of Kalina's castle and showed the excess parts with a dotted line - cut them off using a grinder or a hacksaw.

I immediately felt the disadvantage of this bracket - the connection is a little flimsy, so the lock can move and, as a result, the trunk of the Nine will not close. To make the connection stronger, you need a major corner. During my search, I came across a plate with perforation. I made a corner out of it and cut a hole for the lock lever (which opens the trunk). In the photo you can see this corner. You install it on the lyada and attach a lock to it. The rigidity is sufficient, so the door will not open while moving.

However, even if you use the first bracket, the likelihood of opening the trunk is extremely low. And now about the answer. In the photo you can see that it is screwed with the same bolts as the original one, into the same holes. One thing - I had to lift it slightly, for this I used two washers installed under the nuts of the cylinder head cover of the classic. They form beautifully, have a large support area, and the loop ultimately does not move to the sides.

To implement the electric drive for opening the Kalina lock on the VAZ 2109, a gearmotor with two wires was chosen. There is no point in taking five - there is no need for a limit switch. Check how the drive works - the rod is in the middle position, when connected to power (minus to blue, plus to green) it is retracted, when the polarity is reversed it is pulled out. Therefore, dance according to these parameters; for me it turned out to be more convenient to use the retraction mode, since it seems to me the most suitable.

Either now everyone has started actively repairing their cars, and at the same time their houses, but I couldn’t find a wire with a cross-section of about 0.75 square meters. mm. Well, maximum one and a half! Not anywhere, there is a yellow-green one (for grounding), and even that one is 2.5 square meters. mm. Therefore, the choice fell on a two-core one, the cross-section of each core is 0.5 square meters. mm. The Chinese usually use these in their household tape recorders. I screwed the gear motor to the bar and installed it on the trunk door. I screwed it onto the lock lever; to be honest, I don’t know what to call it correctly. Let this be an adapter that connects the lock rods and the drive spoke. This will probably be correct, but if not, then correct me. In the photo they are on the left in a bag.

These are the holes that appeared after I removed all the “unnecessary” stuff. And now all that’s left to do is to install the wires in the following sequence: cigarette lighter – button – motor output (green). The blue one, as you understand, needs to be screwed to the ground, fortunately there are plenty of bolts and nuts there. And the funny thing is that I removed the wiper and I already have at least three wires down to the steering column switches! I call and the choice falls on white with a blue stripe, and I use it as a feeder. And the purchased wire will be useful for something else. That's all, you try, evaluate, if necessary, loosen the fastening and move the lock body in the desired direction. And now one small “bonus”. There is a limit switch on Kalina's trunk lock, and I plan to use it to turn on the trunk lighting. I think the blue LED strip will be just right.

And to do everything as expected, you will have to use this circuit with a relay. The likelihood of damage to the button is reduced to zero. And the time has come to sum up and count the costs:

• Castle Kalina sedan - 450 rubles.
• The response part is 135 rubles.
• Electric drive - 170 rub.
• Button - 60 rub.
• Wire - 50 rub.
• Plank - 33 rub.
• Total - 898 rubles.

Is it advisable? It seems to me that yes, because in three years I have changed at least six locks! It is also advisable to install gas equipment to save on fuel. Each lock costs on average 400 rubles (once they were 350, and then the price went up). Therefore, it is better to do it once and for a long time. And if you got here, you obviously encountered a similar problem. It can be solved, do it, don’t be afraid, you won’t make it worse. Subscribe in the comments and share your experience.

The trunk door 2109 opens while driving

The door closes well, you can’t open it with your hands, there’s no play, I tried moving the latch and the lock itself to different positions, everything was useless. Even locking it with a key doesn’t help.
I tried to correct it with a file, also to no avail.

Anyone who has encountered this problem, please share your experience.

In short, I solved the problem myself: I unscrewed the mating part of the lock and moved it slightly towards the interior. Thus, the tongue fits more tightly into the hole and. That's it! So try moving the larva, it should help!

Adjusting the trunk of a VAZ will help get rid of the annoying rattling noise in the rear of the car during a trip. Many car enthusiasts who bought one of the VAZ models have a question: what to do about this noise? Attempts to change the lock most often lead to failure; nothing changes. What measures should be taken in this case?

Replacing the cover yourself

To remove the trunk door you will need:

• knob;
• set of socket heads;
• slotted screwdriver;
• set of open-end wrenches.

Before starting work, you should disconnect the ground terminal (negative) from the battery in order to eliminate the possibility of a short circuit.

Replacement procedure

The replacement of the VAZ 2114 trunk lid itself is carried out in the following order:

1. Open the tailgate and secure it with a suitable size prop.
2. Using a flat-head screwdriver, pry the mounting location of the upper hinge of the gas-filled stop, press it inside the trunk and disconnect it.

Remove the upper mount of the trunk of the VAZ 2114. Use a flat screwdriver to pry up the lower mount of the gas-filled stop and also disconnect it. Remove the gas stop. In a similar way, dismantle the second gas stop. Unscrew the fasteners and remove the brackets used to secure the stops. Unscrew the brackets. Check the condition and straightness of the stops themselves - if they are bent or deformation, then you should purchase new ones and install them during reassembly. Using a slotted screwdriver or a special puller, pry up and remove 10 pins securing the tailgate trim. Remove the trim. Remove the trim. Disconnect all terminals and wire blocks connected to the tailgate. Disconnect the terminals. Remove the harnesses. wires from the cover. Remove the wires. Dismantle the fastenings of the trunk lining. Unscrew the fastening elements of the lock and remove the lock. Using a puller or a flat-head screwdriver, pry and remove several pins securing the rear edge of the ceiling trim. Bend the detached edge of the trim so that it does not interfere with further dismantling of the cover. In the opened technological cavity, find the nut securing the terminal and unscrew it (it is best to use a socket wrench or a socket with an extension). Remove the terminal. Remove the terminal. On each side of the upper rear part of the cabin, find and unscrew a pair of fastening nuts holding the trunk hinges. Unscrew trunk lid hinges Remove the trunk lid.

When disconnecting the wiring harness connectors that go to the trunk, be sure to mark them with colored markers or electrical tape to avoid possible problems when connecting them.

After the trunk door is removed, you should carefully inspect the condition of its hinges - if they or their fastening elements are skewed or have cracks, then they should be replaced.

It is produced as follows:

1. Remove the gaskets from both hinges.

Remove the hinge gaskets. Using a socket wrench or a socket with an extension, unscrew a pair of fastening bolts holding the hinges in the door. Unscrew the hinge fastening bolts. Dismantle the hinges and the gaskets installed under them. Dismantle the hinges with gaskets. Install new gaskets and hinges, and then fix them.

Reassembly and installation of the tailgate is carried out in exactly the same order as disassembly, but in reverse order.

Drive installation

Adjusting the position of the trunk lid is possible if, instead of a mechanical lock, you install an electronic device, in this case a drive. To install it you will need:

• universal drive installation kit for the machine;
• metal cable with a cross-section of 1.5 mm and 500 mm long;
• two contact connection wires of 4.5 m each;
• screws with wide heads;
• opening button for the lock;
• retainer;
• fuse;

We install the drive in the prepared place, according to the instructions. Next, you will have to make several amendments to the design:

1. We arm ourselves with a 7 key and clamp the bushing on the lock body. Use a screwdriver to clamp the bushing and unscrew the locking screw from the traction mechanism. You need to change the washer to another larger one.
2. We make a hook from wire, which we connect to the locking screw directly under the new washer. Then we extend the same wire to the electric drive rack.
3. We attach the electric drive relay to the trunk amplifier with self-tapping screws.
4. The plate from the kit is connected to the activation device with the lock bolts so that there is a gap of 1.5 cm from the lock tongue to the plate.
5. The activator is installed.
6. A rod is made from a piece of cable, which is connected to the lock lever, the electric drive rack, the lock tongue and the release mechanism.
7. Wires are being laid. The positive contact extends to the control button.
8. We connect the device to the battery and install a fuse in its system.

The VAZ trunk is opened by pressing a button that can be installed in the cabin.

The electronic device is adjusted according to the included instructions. All other nuances that should be taken into account when installing the device in VAZ models have been indicated.
