Title: Problem with the exterior handle from the trunk i30 CW - how to replace the doo
Post by: dar_kowski on June 28, 2022, 20:03:12

Hello ,
 I have a problem with the exterior handle from the trunk in the Hyundai i30 CW 2010.
 Despite pressing the rubber button, the boot does not always open.
 In winter, in frost, I noticed that the button could not be pressed at all as if water had collected there and it was frozen inside.  After the thaw, it worked.
 Now, despite pressing this handle, the trunk sometimes does not open at all.

 Has anyone replaced the tailgate switch on the i30 CW station wagon by himself?

 The car is a station wagon, so the handle number is 812602L200.

 Can anyone describe or send photos how to replace the handle with the number 812602L200?

I haven't replaced anything in my FD except lights to LED but if you are successful in dismantling the door catch and you need a plastic part, maybe I can help with a 3D design and/or print.
