How to replace the trunk lock cylinder on a VAZ-2114

Compare Kalinovsky and Grantovsky castles.

The Granta lock has some drawbacks, you’ll have to say goodbye to the rear wiper (I’ve been wanting to remove it for a long time), and you’ll need to make your own mount:

I made it from a steel corner 40*40*4mm, cut it out with a grinder, started making it according to this drawing, it looks like it was for the 99th, then everything was adjusted to the location... I painted the finished corner in the color of the car. I had to bend the corner...

In order to plug the hole from the original lock, I took a plug from the manual window regulators. They cover the oar holes on the door trims...

I painted it in color, I had to shorten the screw...

Since I am not going to return the wiper, I decided to use the wires coming from it. They go down the left pillar and go to the mounting block connector. I pulled them out of the connector, I use one for the lock drive, the other for the limit switch in the lock. I connected it as usual, via a relay to the button and to the alarm, I forgot to take a photo.

Wires from the wiper. White with a blue stripe and yellow with a blue stripe From the IAC connector and the rear wiper connector I made this adapter to the wiper wiring... I put the bracket in place. Then I screwed and adjusted the lock... The lock is in the closed position. Here you can see why you need to bend the corner. This is what it looks like from the outside...

I also made a video of how it all works from the outside:

And from the inside:

Saw off and bend the counter part a little Button from a VAZ 2110 Lock Reply from a grant It had to be worked on a little with sandpaper so that it would fit into the lock

We will have to saw off the parts we don’t need from the lock (well, they are unnecessary, they are needed for the viburnum, but we don’t need them) and remove the electric drive because It will open with the help of a solenoid rod.

The cutting line, we saw off everything above it. This is what happened. I made a hole in the body to remove the draft from it. Started fitting

Someone bends the brackets on the answers, but in my opinion this is not good, so I simply drilled out the existing holes.

Here's what happened: The moment of adjustment

Here I was already glad that almost everything was finished, but when I closed the trunk, I saw that because of the lock the door did not fit tightly, I decided to saw off the bracket from the answer and digest it. By the way, I had never cooked before, I had to go to my neighbor and ask him to brew it, but in the end I cooked it myself using a semi-automatic device.

Don’t judge strictly, this is my first experience. If I could, I would make it prettier.

We move on to the outer part of the trunk lid, namely sealing the hole (hole) from the cylinder of the old lock.

This is what the plug looks like. A little glue and the plug falls into its rightful place. Well, everything is ready

The lock cylinder that locks the trunk or the same door is a special element that provides the necessary level of secrecy. This part is a cylinder equipped with a set of spring-loaded pins. The latter allow you to move the lock tongue, but only if the inserted key has a certain combination of teeth. A working cylinder ensures protection of the above-mentioned car compartment from unauthorized opening. Accordingly, failure of a part is a problem that needs prompt elimination. Many owners of VAZ model 2114 cars prefer to repair all breakdowns themselves. The only trouble is that not everyone understands exactly how the larva is replaced. We'll talk about this later.

Reasons for refusal

VAZ-2114 is a very decent car, but the lock installed on its trunk is very weak. As a rule, problems with the larva occur when the owner tries to unlock the compartment in the cold. The moisture frozen inside actually blocks the mechanism, and a person has to exert considerable effort, which causes the locking ring to break and the cylinder to fall out of the socket located above the handle.

In addition, the internal pins of the larva wear out over time. As a result, the cylinder begins to rotate with slippage or does not respond at all to attempts. The driver has to select the optimal key position for a long time, which is extremely inconvenient.

Among other things, it is worth understanding that the lock itself of the VAZ model in question is made of silumin, an aluminum alloy noticeably weaker than duralumin. This leads to rapid failure of the entire mechanism, because the trunk door itself is attached to the body only with its help.

Features of the trunk lid of the Chevrolet Niva

In general, “features” is too strong a word. The lid is just like a lid, and its only “unusuality” is that it opens not like the old Niva (lifting up), but, at the whim of the engineers, to the left. And I must say, this is quite an interesting solution! An example, apparently, was the “English” Land Rover Defender, produced for safari travel. This comparison especially suggests itself after you see the spare wheel, which is held on by the lid (or, more correctly, the door) of the trunk.

Apparently, the Americans, who helped Russian developers implement the project to create a joint crossover, tried to take into account all the nuances of Russian roads, and therefore quite a lot of attention was paid to the strength and reliability of the car. Right down to the design of doors. The trunk lid here is devoid of any devices such as torsion bars, springs and shock absorbers. And this is probably its value. At least, car enthusiasts do not have to become inventors and look for solutions to the problem, simultaneously racking their brains about where to drill a hole or weld a piece of iron. In addition to the fact that the lid opens to the side, it only requires hinges.

Article on the topic: Why do you need a low gear in a car?

Chevrolet Niva trunk lid

Are there any complaints about the luggage compartment door from car enthusiasts who have chosen to purchase this “iron horse”? Well, what would we do without them! Considering that the lock of the luggage compartment lid (door) is electrically driven, corresponding malfunctions also occur here. They especially often complain that the wiring is frayed. The fact is that they are a bit harsh, and fractures occur in places close to the door hinges. This can be eliminated, in general, quickly, but it is still unpleasant. You have to disassemble the connectors to find the breakdown. Many owners “sin” on the fuse box, and therefore, unable to find the true reason why the lock does not work, they spoil their nerves and mood.

The device of the tailgate

The following malfunctions that could occur in the trunk lid are related to the wiper and glass washer. However, judging by the reviews of the owners, these devices do not cause any problems. Difficulties may also arise when changing the rear door itself, when it is necessary not only to correctly connect the wires for the devices, but also to make adjustments, adjust the tightness of the seals, adjust the lock latch, adjust the location of the hinges and carry out a lot of other manipulations.

Another “little thing” that can ruin a car owner’s mood is the creaking of the hinges when driving. In principle, you can ignore it, but understand for yourself how painfully any malfunction, even a tiny one, hurts! Our “Kulibins” have been looking for a solution to this problem for a long time, but, as often happens, it lay on the surface. It turned out that you just need to lubricate the hinges with any grease - and that’s it! The squeaks instantly disappear.

Removing the old lock

The lock cylinder is firmly driven into the mechanism, and therefore it will not be possible to replace it without completely dismantling it.

Prepare the following tools:

• 8mm socket wrench;
• set of Phillips screwdrivers;
• marker.

First, remove the tailgate trim. It is installed on 10 plastic clips. Underneath it is the protective casing of the lock itself - unscrew the screws holding it in place and remove the element.

Next, you need to outline the locking mechanism with a marker and unscrew the nuts holding it with a wrench. Later, installing the lock along the marked contours will make it easier to adjust, or even with a successful combination of circumstances will make this procedure completely unnecessary.

To prevent wires hidden under the upholstery from interfering with your work, move them to the side and temporarily glue them with a strip of electrical tape. Remove the lock from the pins and inspect it for damage; if there is any, it will have to be replaced.

Adjustment and Troubleshooting

Constant use of the vehicle can lead to gradual wear of the rubber seals. Also, violation of the established gaps between body elements often occurs. The result is a violation of the tightness of the luggage compartment of the car.

In addition, the torsion system of the trunk lid stops working correctly as the spring elements wear out. The trunk lid no longer locks and does not stay open, creating inconvenience for the driver and passengers.

Adjusting the trunk lid allows you to bring these parameters back to normal. It is better to entrust such work to professionals, but a considerable number of car enthusiasts cope with it on their own.

If there is moisture inside the trunk or increased gaps between the body and the lid, the lid should be checked and adjusted. First of all, you need to check the correct position of the hinges. Any displacement of these elements must be eliminated. In this case, it is necessary to check for play, jamming and corrosion damage in the bolted connections of the hinges.

The rubber seal should be periodically checked for integrity and correct installation. In case of deviations from the norm, it must be replaced.

Installation of the larva

So, you have removed the lock, and now you need to remove the plate securing the main spring from it. There will be no special problems with this, as well as with dismantling the guide.

Difficulties arise when removing the repelling mechanism. It is held on a hinge. To pull the latter out, you need to drill a hole with a diameter of no more than 3.5 millimeters on the side, against its end.

The pin is simply knocked out with a hammer through the resulting hole. Only after this will you be able to gain access to the larva itself.

The named element of the locking device is fixed with a special pin. Since you won’t need the old cylinder, you can safely knock it out without worrying about its integrity.

Place a new one in place of the old one. Secure it with a 50 mm nail shortened to the required size - it fits easily into the pin hole. This circumstance can subsequently create problems - an improvised pin can spontaneously fall out due to vibration. After this, the castle will, of course, need repairs again. To save yourself the trouble of wasting time, coat the nail fragment with silicone sealant.

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.

Options

If you do not have a special desire for locksmith work, then we recommend not to experiment, but to purchase an assembled lock - installing it takes 20 minutes with smoke breaks.

An alternative to mechanical constipation should be considered electrical. This device is highly reliable and allows you to open the tailgate without getting out from behind the steering wheel. The disadvantage of such a lock is its high cost.

Welcome! The trunk lock is responsible for closing and opening it, thanks to it the trunk is also kept in the closed position and until you want it, it will not open, but over time the lock wears out or the trunk lid is replaced with a new one, in this case the first thing will need to be adjusted the lock, if it wears out, it will have to be adjusted and replaced with a new one, otherwise either the trunk lid will not open (it will jam, this is the worst option), or on its own (When driving over bumps) there will be time time to open up.

Note! To replace the trunk lock, stock up on the following set of tools, namely: A set of screwdrivers, wrenches and spanners; in addition, you may also need adjustment plates, but this is only if the lock has to be adjusted, and a new lock must be adjusted to fit the lock!

Where is the trunk lock located? Every car has a trunk lock, it alone does not play any role and is of no use, but if you also add a latch to this lock (And every car also has a latch), then when you close the trunk lid, the lock will engage with this latch and thus the lid is locked, these two parts are located as follows, namely the lock itself is located in the rear central part of the trunk lid as shown in the large photograph, and the latch is located not on the lid but on the car body (see small photo) and when closing the trunk lid, the lock enters this latch and the lid is fixed.

When should you change your trunk lock? It is changed in the case when it stops working and opening the trunk, the main reason for the lock’s inoperability is the failure of its cylinder, in some cases it simply becomes deformed (Due to a blow to it with something, it may fail) except for the above listed situations, the lock is sometimes changed to work, it’s just that when replacing the trunk lid, the lock moves to a new position and there are cases when the trunk lid cannot close and people immediately run to the auto store for a new one, although in such a situation the lock latch will simply need to be adjusted and it will last for a long time very long life, so see for yourself not to confuse in which cases the lock needs to be replaced, and in which cases it will be quite simple to adjust it.

How to open the trunk of a VAZ 2115 desert

Motorists know it's too much. There is a problem with the lock breaking. This is especially true for Russian-made cars, the quality of which is not ideal in almost all respects. The worst thing about this is that the malfunction is unexpected when it is absolutely necessary .

, spare, pump, in other words, some kind of thing in the rear compartment

It is for this reason that it is important to know how to open a chest without a key if the passage breaks its lock. Every motorist will need this skill

both for everyday use and for long trips.

If the trunk is separate

Car or coupe. These are body types in which the luggage compartment is not directly connected to the cabin. What to do in this situation? To open the trunk, you need to open the rear doors of the car and try to lower the rear part of the passenger sofa (if the design of the car allows such an operation). To dismantle old foreign cars and representatives of the Russian automobile industry, you will have to bend the metal hinges welded to the body.

Now evaluate whether there is access to the luggage compartment from the cabin. Nearly half of cars are prevented from leaking into the rear compartment due to the presence of a hard shell amplifier located behind the seat back (in most cases it looks like metal strips welded together). how to open the trunk

in this case? Here's how:

• Take a flashlight and look inside the compartment. Carefully inspect the location of the lock (if the trunk is not loaded, the mechanism will be subject to close attention).
• Design a winch extension, then attach it to a long stick (piece of rebar) using the extension.
• If the car has skin, it will have to be removed. To do this, prepare an extension cord (now for a screwdriver).

open stem You can use another method. For example, find a piece of narrow wire, secure it and pass it through the lock. Primary goal. bend the latch to the side and use this method to open the compartment latch.

Another way out of the situation, in the absence of a key, is to introduce a slotted screwdriver. The tool should be moved inward, then turn it in one direction and the other, immediately trying to rotate the mechanism. It is worth knowing that this method is not suitable for new Russian cars and foreign cars. The reason is that there is a special anti-burglary protection that will not open the trunk. The result of this work is the destruction of the castle and the need to change it. For this reason, it is better to reject this option in the main component of the cases.

How to replace the trunk lock on a VAZ 2113-VAZ 2115?

1) As for hatchbacks, the lock can be easily removed on them, but there will be no problems on sedans either, but the principle of replacement on two different bodies is different, first we’ll talk about hatchbacks, if you have a car with such a body, then remove them first the upholstery that is fastened inside the trunk lid with ten pistons, it can be removed very easily, all the pistons were pry off with a screwdriver and then the upholstery was put aside, for more details on how to do this, read the article: “Replacing a spoiler on cars”, point one in that Study the article in detail.

2) After the upholstery is removed, unscrew two bolts and thereby remove the lock from the car, but only when unscrewing the bolts, take into account the fact that under one of them there are several terminals, one of which goes to the tailgate wiper motor, and the other to brake light, well, that's it, the lock has been removed from the car.

Note! To adjust the lock on this type of car, take a spanner wrench (You can use a spanner if there is no spanner, there is simply a chance of breaking the bolts securing the lock) and use it to loosen the bolts securing the lock (Do not unscrew them completely, in this case, by the way, you are adjusting the position of the lock, because in a knocked down position, the trunk lid may be difficult to close, close with a blow, or it is very poorly fastened and opens at all on bumps), then move the latch in the desired direction, ensuring that the lock, when closing the trunk lid, enters the latch without strong force and that the trunk closes firmly (see photo 1), if you need to adjust the trunk lid in height (That is, the lid does not close well and there is play if you pull the lid), then in this case completely unscrew the bolts securing the latch, remove it and then the select the adjusting plates behind it (Always remember one thing, the more plates you put, the higher the trunk lid will stand and it will have a backlash, the fewer plates there are, the worse the trunk lid closes and the stronger it is pressed against the car body, and if there are no plates at all, then you simply won’t be able to close the lid, so look for a middle ground, see photo 2)!

3) As for sedans, they first remove the plastic clips using a screwdriver that secure the lock cover and then the cover is removed (see photo 1), and when it is removed, proceed to disconnect the rod, to do this, the tip of the rod (The rod is indicated in blue arrow in photo 2) remove it from the hole indicated by the green arrow, but keep in mind that the tip is bent and secured with a screw indicated by the yellow arrow, so first unscrew the screw, then straighten the bent end of the rod with pliers and only after that remove the rod from the hole in which it is is how this will all be done, remove the rod from the hole in the lock cylinder lever (see photo 3) and remove it, immediately after that unscrew the three nuts that secure the lock (see photo 4) to the trunk lid and remove it from studs and finally, unscrew the bolt that secures the lock cylinder (see photo 5) and remove it (see photo 6).

Note! The new lock is installed in its place in the reverse order of removal, when installing the nut at the beginning, do not tighten it all the way, but rather tighten it a little and try in different positions of the lock, closing the trunk lid, thereby you will adjust the lock to fit the lid and you will have it It's okay to close!

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?

Connecting the product

Before carrying out connection work, be sure to disconnect the negative terminal from the battery. To begin with, we present the diagram according to which the product will function.

The electric lock will be supplied with 12V power directly from the battery, although you can also use a wire from the cigarette lighter. First, connect the wire to the “+” terminal of the battery.

The battery supplies power to the relay, which can be located both in the cabin and in the engine compartment, which will be much more rational. From terminal “86” the wire is fed to the trunk opening button, which can be located in any convenient place on the dashboard. To install the button that will open the trunk lid, you will need to drill a hole of the appropriate diameter in the dashboard.

The wire from the relay terminal “30” is laid through the cabin to the activator. Its length must be at least 5 meters. The wire can be laid together with the standard wiring. This wire must be connected to the green wire of the activator using female-male connectors. The blue wire must be short-circuited to vehicle ground. Now you can check how the electric trunk lock of the VAZ 2107 functions. It is enough to spend 2-3 hours so that the trunk will eventually open using the VAZ 2107 button. After completing the work, do not forget to connect the negative terminal to the battery.

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?

Why adjust doors?

The door of a modern car should close silently, with a slight push. Understanding that adjustment is required will come if the cause of the breakdown is identified:

1. The hinges are in the wrong position - the parts are checked for mechanical damage.
2. The gaps between the door and the body part have been increased - poor adjustment was previously carried out.
3. The door handle or lock needs to be replaced - the fasteners are poorly secured.
4. Body deformation occurs as a result of an accident, locksmith work, or improper installation of the door card.

Replacement options

The first option is banal to the point of impossibility - buy a similar lock. Moreover, you will need to buy the entire lock, and not a separate part, because the design of the mechanism is non-separable. Replacement is carried out when the old lock is completely dismantled. This solution should be considered temporary, since the production technology is the same and the problems will remain. Over time, a new lock will have to be replaced. The only positive side of this solution is that it is quite cheap.

The second option involves completely replacing the mechanical lock with an electrically controlled drive. What does this give?

1. Secure trunk closure.
2. Possibility to control the position of the rear door from the driver's seat.

Installing such a system is not the cheapest pleasure, but the final result will really please the user. The electronic drive is much more convenient to use and is a reliable replacement for its mechanical counterpart.

Opening the trunk with the button Lada 2114

Good afternoon The topic may be a bit of a bummer, but I’ll write it anyway (perhaps the thread will be useful to someone). I thought for a long time about what kind of trunk opening system to make, there were several options, which would be more reliable. In the end, I chose a system that, without any special modifications, turned out to be reliable (I’ve been riding for a year now without any problems). In general, I found these drawings and ordered them from a turner I know.

Main element drawing

In the end I got something like this.

Installation in a regular place without any adjustments.

I’ll take off the lock to show clearly how this system works.

this is what they look like together

The lever from below is placed with its foot under the original lock, from above we hook the rod from the solenoid and we have this result when retracting the solenoid

Side view when opening

This is what it looks like in place. Everything is ready, the connection is started according to this diagram

put the button in the car

This is how it works:

All that remains is to figure out how to make the trunk lid open on its own. As a result, I begged a friend for trunk shock absorbers from the Volt Golf 6. What we have:

In terms of warmth, this whole thing worked well, but with the advent of cold weather it stopped opening, in the end it was necessary to make a thread to push out the shock absorber, because it was missing a little bit. I carefully disassembled the shock absorbers, holding them in a vice through a glove so as not to screw up the rod; it was very difficult to unscrew.

I took it and went to the store. I picked up the springs at the VAZ store. In a nearby store I bought rubber bands (cuffs from the Japanese) to fit the rod to secure the spring.

It turned out something like this:

It looks like this. And again the trunk opens BY itself!

Dismantling the old castle

Before replacing, you will have to dismantle the old closing mechanism, and this is not so easy.

The VAZ 2114 model will be taken as an example.

The following tools will be useful in your work:

• set of Phillips screwdrivers;
• key to 8.

The replacement sequence is as follows:

1. First of all, in order not to damage the interior lining of the trunk, we remove ten plastic fasteners, and then the plastic casing from the lock.
2. We remove the casing, then unscrew the nut that secures the lock in place.
3. Unscrew the wires that are in the way.
4. Next, you need to unscrew the right fastening nut and remove the inner part of the lock from the fastenings.
5. You can inspect the integrity of the spring and core. If these parts are defective, then the problem is in the mechanism. In any case, everything will have to be changed.

If you prefer the economical option of replacing it with a new mechanical lock, then install it in the reverse order as described.

Preparation for installation

We purchase a lock kit. There are a lot of manufacturers of auto parts on the market now, but there are no special differences between the kits

It is important that the device has a warranty card and instructions for use and connection. Also in the box you will find:

Additionally, you need to stock up on a set of standard tools: pliers, screwdriver, screwdrivers, multimeter, drill with carbide drill bit. In addition to the standard accessories, immediately buy additional wires; it is quite possible that the length of those you find in the box will not be enough for you. Black heat-resistant insulating tape, corrugated tubes, and clips for fastening the trim will also be useful, since very often the trim of car elements is attached to disposable ones.
