Car Forum / Volvo Cars / April 2007gas cap door jammed
Today I was about out of gas and could not get the door open to the gas cap. I started the car and repeatedly pushed the button to open the door, but it is jammed. I tried to pry the door to the gas cap open, but it is stuck. Anybody got any suggestions? Thanks >Today I was about out of gas and could not get the door open to the gas cap. >I started the car and repeatedly pushed the button to open the door, but it >is jammed.

Also, rather than pulling or prying on the door, try pushing on it or whacking it.

What, he has a copy of her album? My nephew figured it out. The panel on the right side of the trunk was released which allowed us to see the white release module that allows the gas door to open. On the front side of the small white box is a metal teeth mechanism that can be pulled out of the white box disengaging the door. Now I can put gas in my car. > Today I was about out of gas and could not get the door open to the gas > cap. I started the car and repeatedly pushed the button to open the door, > but it is jammed.
