You can also prop open the switch or (have someone hold it up) and use a credit card to open it. It’s way easier. Js
Okay this comment saved me when I spent over 40 mins trying to do the process in the video. Thank you!!!
You deadass da goat for this comment started praying for you like I knew you 😂😂😂
This comment saved me! 20 miles left on my gas tank, inside plastic broke on the hing, and closest place to repair is over 50 miles away.
“This is the tricky part” didn’t explain what the video maker did and I was STRUGGLING!
Thank you!!
Thank you so much!!!!
Thank you I love you
Was stuck at a gas station and this helped out a ton thanks!
THANK YOU AT THE GAS STATION IN THE RAIN⛽️ AND DIDNT KNOW HOW TO OPEN THE FUEL ⛽️ DOOR
What did you use to press in the tabs?? I can't do it with just my hands or even a bobby pin
@@itstiffannyy what did you use?!
@@itstiffannyy I tried the end of a comb but not working.
I was literally out of gas at pump and this happened , 2012 rav opened door pulled that cable came out and I was saved .. u got a sub for that and a genuine thank you i appreciate you .. now wonder if cable is broke will look at it later
Awesome video 😍😍😍. I just have a RAV4 and I’m in the family of Toyota now 🤣😂🤣
Very good camera work. Leaves nothing to the imagination.
Literally a life saver!
Thank you for this video! I had the same issue at the gas station and couldn’t open my fuel door! Luckily someone helped me open it while I pushed the button. For those with the electric mechanism, you can open the same little door. There will be a lever that you pull to unlatch the door and at the same time use a card to pop the fuel door open from the outside.
This is good to know.
I'm amazed you got both your hands inside of that small hole , great job!
And how does he see the pins he’s hitting. This shit is frustrating
You guys, there is an easier way to do this. If you have someone hold up the fuel tank flip inside the car, you can push the top left corner and the bottom left corner and it should open. This will only work if someone else is holding up the fuel tank flip inside the car while you are pushing the left corners.
13mm deep well socket to prop the handle up and a trim tool to open the door worked 🖤 thanks bud. Lol
Works with two of credit/id cards as well - one sits horizontally in the latch (if it’s a mechanical one) and the other to pry it open.
Thank you, you saved my vacation!
Your video saved my day! Used my car key to pop open the panel in the trunk, and it was super easy. Thank you
No problem. Thank you for your feedback!
Great job, awesome...thanks..👍🙏🙏
why does this channel have so much rav4? I love it.
cause they are troublesome pos
So helpful your videos are having owned 2020 Rav4. Wanted to say THANK YOU!
How much did you have to pay to fix this? I have the same car and year and my did this today.?
Great video. Very informative. It helped me.
We pushed on the hinge side while someone else pushed the button. My 2019 has a button not a pull. But this is good to know if I don’t have someone with me the next time.
Thank you bc I couldn't figure out how to detach it from I side the trunk.
My customer had the hinge spring mount break. Luckily the customer noticed and recovered the spring for me. I simply Zip ties the apring, back to the hinge location, and its been fine ever since 😂
Bingo. Thank you for help. Ingenious. Amazing job.
This guy has all the cheat codes for this car
Bravo POLAND Here U got sub Bravo !
This solution didn't work for me, i tried something else that worked way better! But thanks for the video!
Thank you 👌👌
Thanks for the tips, it's very helpful. Do you know what the part number for the release cap retainer.. the grey clip seen at 1:30 timestamp in the video.
Will try this on my car tomorrow
Привет. Тоже полезная информация. Может быть пригодиться. Молодец:-)
Thank you. It is a cold day, and I tried many times to open the door but couldn't.
Thank you
Is this happening alot with the Rav 4?
It just happened to me 2019 RAV 4 with 6423 miles, I had someone pull the inside handle and used small penknife to pry open. Will be scheduling appointment asap to repair. If this is happening a lot they should recall and repair or at least have a service bulletin to fix for free. Will update asap
Insert a card between the lid, ✔👍
Yes.. Just did this. This process in the video seems a bit complicated
Damn my hands are too big to fit both inside.
Pretty sure this is exactly what is happening to me currently.
What I did to open it by myself was stick a credit card in the spacing of the gas cap and wedge it in and then release the button… I managed to do this once only bc the gas cap immediately closes on itself.
Do I have to replace the grey part or just twist around to make it open my gas cap properly?
Thank you so much for this incredible, easy trick. I recommend anyone else to try this first. While this won't fix the problem. It's worth the attempt as it's quicker and simple to get the gas door panel opened. This trick should only take seconds. If it doesn't work for you, then proceed with the video
My RAV4 has a spring-loaded push button to open the fuel filler door. I use a cube of Bostik Blu-Tack (sticky putty for office use) which I press onto the edge of the button to keep it depressed. You can then walk round to the fuel filler cap and apply finger pressure to the corners to prise it open. Meanwhile Toyota keep telling me that I have to book it into their body shop to get it fixed. Sigh.
I know how to get it open but how do i fix the issue that I don't have to go through that again? Why is the switch inside not doing the spring pop thing that opens freely? I mean when pulling the lever the grey thingy goes in and out why wont it fly open? The wire seems fine so whats the issue why did it stop working properly?
I have a 2013 Rav4 and I need to replace this actuator because mine is stuck open. Have you or anyone done this? Are there any videos?
All the space. They should have added insulation to quit the ride. It’s load. I have that same rav4 and a 04 buick lesabre. The buick is like driving a caddy. No road noise and smooth as glass
I just bought a 2021 rav4 and my ride is super quiet. But I also came from a soft top jeep so I was used to really loud for a long time
Its the trade off for the fuel economy.
I have owned many Toyotas in pas 35 years---no more---just junk from day 1,
@@olddog63 ha better than a ford Chevy or dodge hands down
i wonder if their was a way to use rare earth magnets to hold the door shut and use a locking gas cap? and get rid of the latch system
My 2019 RAV4 fuel unlock is broken. As I would assume most people watching the video. I understand the method you are using to change the lock. This does not help me access my fuel tank because you used a properly functioning unlock. People with the issue you are addressing can’t do the first step
Correction: not change the lock but basically remove the lock
You do it from inside the trunk. The first step as you say is just a demonstration of how the lock is designed.
Damn my hands are too big for this
My Toyota us electric not a pull tab

So you do this all the time? What a pain
My rav4 has an electric button to open the petrol flap. Not a pull leaver.i have never seen a rav4 with that sort of release. All uk models are electric the latch mechanism is nothing like them on your car there no cable . What you pulled on your car is the bonnet release on my cst
th-cam.com/video/e5ZXU_49A2c/w-d-xo.html
Our latch is right next to bonnet release on the left
Bullshit how he got both hands in
