I got the hansshow power frunk a year ago and now my frunk opens about 10 inches and won't lift anymore. It closes fine, but I can't get the frunk to fully open. Any suggestions on how to fix this or at least get it open so I can remove it?

You mean it doesn't even lift open manually (by force)? I assume the lifts went from fully working to the current state directly, i.e. it wasn't a gradual deterioration of the lift height? If so, I wonder if it's the 12V battery that is the problem.I got the hansshow power frunk a year ago and now my frunk opens about 10 inches and won't lift anymore.

Maybe check with Hansshow?I got the hansshow power frunk a year ago and now my frunk opens about 10 inches and won't lift anymore. It closes fine, but I can't get the frunk to fully open. Any suggestions on how to fix this or at least get it open so I can remove it?
Also, I’d lift with someone else from the closest point to the struts you can get. Do no try to lift from the front.assuming the struts are good, try to manually (carefully) raise the hood to the open position and then hold the open safety button for around 10 secs to reset the system. You should hear a long beep. I think I saw this when I first installed. Good luck.
You mean auto-frunk in general or the Hansshow one specifically? This is indeed the only must-mod for me as well, but I went with EVOffer's version. I watched a YT video from two Tesla influencers comparing their auto-frunk mod side-by-side, one EVOffer and the other Hansshow. You can tell the difference in the sound, speed/smoothness, and closing flushness. No clear winner but I really liked the EVOffer one, especially how flush it was after latching.This makes me so nervous since I feel like this is pretty much the only "MUST" mod I would do.
Auto-frunk in general. For me, that functionality takes the frunk from never used to always used. The fragility of the hood and necessity to press it in just the right way make it impractical to use otherwise.You mean auto-frunk in general or the Hansshow one specifically?

Thought the same thing when I got my Y a year ago. Installed the EVOffer kit right away and loved it ………… until it wouldn’t open. After lots of anxiety on a road trip a friendly SC tech got it open for me. I removed it when I got home. Now, I use my frunk all the time ……. opening and closing it manually as delivered. Easy-peasy, no problem, one handed, etc. Now I wonder why I thought the auto-frunk was so important.Auto-frunk in general. For me, that functionality takes the frunk from never used to always used.

I certainly hope that mine doesn't stop working when I get to a year with it. I'm halfway there and it's been problem-free. I read that earlier versions the control unit wasn't waterproof, but probably not your issue considering yours was only a year old.Thought the same thing when I got my Y a year ago.

I totally agree with you!Auto-frunk in general. For me, that functionality takes the frunk from never used to always used. The fragility of the hood and necessity to press it in just the right way make it impractical to use otherwise.
It worked fine until I took it in to Tesla for a tire change. I checked the app and noticed they had the Frunk open and didn’t think anything of it. A couple weeks go by and I didn’t have a reason to open it so when I finally did it was in this state.You mean it doesn't even lift open manually (by force)?
