Default Trunk lock dont work

my trunk lock doesnt lock no more. where you lock your trunk from inside near the driver seat it doesnt lock anymore. i can still pop the trunk from the inside where is the problem?

that sucks man, i used to keep mine locked cause of my system, hoping it would keep it from getting stolen.

does the key turn at all when you put it in the lock? Make sure you arent using a valet (sp?) key.

im not sure how the lock works, but i think it turns a bar, that keeps the release from raising.

your "bar" could be broken not allowing it to lock, or the lock itself is messed up, stuck tumblers or something.

once again im not exactly sure how the lock works

same thing happened to mine, i had it locked but someone pulled on it hard enough that it popped my trunk, and now it doesn't lock and it pops regardless of whether i lock it or not.

then that means there is probably a lock similar to whats on a cabinet or something, it just turns a little bar that tries to keep you from pulling it.

its eather bent or broken.

you can probably go to honda and get a replacement
