The gas tank cover refers to the tank used for storing gasoline on the vehicle. The shape is square. Let's have a discussion together.

 

It is made of stainless steel with good sealing performance. There is only a small round entrance, which is as big as the lid of the bottle for easy storage. It is usually placed at the rear of the car.

Open Method

 

When opening it, first we need to know the structure of the car. The trunk and gas tank cover of modern cars can be controlled remotely in the cab. This function brings great convenience to car owners. But when they fail, they often make the owner helpless and cause great trouble.

 

Generally speaking, the trunk and cab are separated by the rear seats. Therefore, as long as the rear seats are removed, you can enter the trunk from the cab. After entering the trunk, the door lock can be opened as long as the movable parts on the door lock are pushed or rotated with a screwdriver.

 

If the gas tank cover cannot be opened, start from the boot.

 

First, remove the lining plate covering the fuel tank in the boot. The lining plate is usually fixed by some plastic clips, which can be easily pried off with a screwdriver. After removing the liner, you can see the locking mechanism of it and its cable for remote operation. It can be opened by pulling the cable.

 

If it does not work, you can press the movable part of the locking mechanism. At the same time, pull the cable continuously, and it will open easily. Some models have a special switch on the locking mechanism, which can be opened by pressing the switch gas tank cover.
