Thanks for the very informative post! This is a job I'm looking at doing soon since mine's a 2007 and I'm pretty sure the fork oil is original :o

Time for an update. I bought a replacement cable a few days ago. In preparation for it's arrival I went to start disassembly on the scoot today. When I shined a light in through the front vent I could plainly see the cable wasn't connected to the door latch. I turned the key and could see the cable end moving so I knew it wasn't broken. From there it was a simple matter of figuring out how to remove the front plastic cover and then re-inserting the cable into the latch arm. Got it all buttoned up and it works a treat.

I know one of the previous owners went down on this scooter and I'm pretty sure some of the plastics were replaced as a result . I suspect that whoever replaced those body parts simply forgot to re connect the glove box cable.

I'll try pushing in while turning the key.

Tried it yesterday and no dice. Must be a broken cable.

Bugger  >:(

Thanks for the suggestions guys!


I hear a distinct click when after the key has been turned to the right to release the door you release the key and it returns to the original position. That 'click' tells me that the key is making the latch lift...do you hear the 'click' after you release the key?

I assume you've tried pushing in on the glove box door to help it release? Trying to jiggle it while the key is turned to the right?

Always hoping the cable releases to the glove box and seat release don't break...if they do gaining access to fix is difficult...

I can't recall hearing a "click", but when I get out of work today I'll try pushing in while turning the key.

Any ideas for how to open a stuck glove box door? I turn the key and there is resistance (i.e. it seems the release mechanism is functioning). So far the only thing I have tried is to fashion a hook out of some wire and use that to pull on the door while turning the key at the same time. I pulled as hard as I dare with no results. What else can I try?
