Not hard at all to lift frunk manually, we live in a world of conveniences....so to be able to sit in the car, touch open frunk and the hood lift open, so your wife/gf can put stuffs in it, touch again to close or while carry boxes or whatever, fidget with your phone and open frunk with app, etc...come in handy during rain weather to be able to open frunk to put groceries before getting in car, etc...WORK GREAT WHEN IT WORKSBrother, with all due respect, was it really that hard to lift your trunk manually? I put in $30 shocks with springs that do that trick.

Hansshow Power Frunk Trouble

When you have it, you'll use it more often as it's a convenience. I've never really used my frunk until I installed one.
This is a TRUE statement, I usual it regularly now 1-3x a week as before installed, I usually used the back ONLY
I'd like to know how you did all of these things! I can't get anyone from Hansshow to talk to me. I have a 2022 Model X and installed a v5 kit. It won't close enough to engage the "suction" . If I manually push it the last little bit, the suction pulls it down fine. It goes up ok too. Also, no matter what speed I select, it goes slow. Lastly the controller light blinks onstantly. Is that normal or is it trying to tell me something? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
My friend had 2 Hansshow Trunk kits and had multiple issues. Hansshow was reasonably responsive to provide some troubleshooting support (verbal) but when it came down to the point of requiring replacement hardware, communications completely stopped and this was for a kit that was less that a year old. Much of the verbal support was them looking for an installation error but it was confirmed installation was all correct. He ended up getting the EVOffer kit and all is good now.
@Mike 53072, if I had to guess maybe its a known issue for your kit that can only be resolved by hardware replacement. That being said, have you verified that the alignment of the 'hook' (the U attached to the frunk lid itself) falls dead center into the latch? If you haven't checked that you may want to check and it is easy to loosen, adjust, and retighten. Sorry, that's all I got for you.

Oh thanks.
I just got he lit but read all these horror stories.
I’m thinking if I can add another emergency wire in case the trunk is locked close.
While mine was installed and the 12v battery died, the emergency cable didn't release the trunk. Applying 12 volts to the two wires unlocked it. I promptly removed the system and went back to stock. This was just a couple weeks ago. I'm not adding anything to my car (anymore) that has to interconnect with the cars wiring. Just not worth the hassle you will/may get from Tesla Service.
Got mine installed. Looks like the strut starts pushing up before the secondary latch is unlocked. Sometimes it’s pushing so hard the secondary latch got stuck and can’t unlock.
Anyone has experience with that? Looks like a firmware update from hansshow would solve it. Wonder if anyone has that firmware.
