Suitable for routine repairs or accident-related replacements, the lock integrates with the vehicle’s central locking and manual release mechanisms.
Technical Information
- Manufacturer: Stellantis / Peugeot
- Model: Peugeot 307 CC
- Product Codes: 9657614680, 8726R2
- Additional Numbers: 9657614680; 8726R2
Function and Benefits
The trunk lid lock combines a mechanical latch and an electric actuator (where fitted) to secure the boot and allow opening via the remote, central locking or interior release. Replacing a faulty lock restores dependable closure, eliminates rattles, prevents water ingress from a misaligned latch, and ensures proper operation of the central locking system. This unit is designed as a direct replacement for the original equipment, matching mounting points and electrical connections for straightforward installation.
Installation Recommendations
Before starting any work, always disconnect the battery to avoid short circuits and unintended actuator operation. Typical replacement procedure:
- Open the boot lid and remove the interior trim panel to access the lock assembly.
- Disconnect the electrical connector from the actuator (if present).
- Remove retaining screws/bolts securing the lock to the tailgate—keep fasteners for reuse if undamaged.
- Withdraw the old latch assembly, noting orientation and linkage positions.
- Fit the new lock, secure mounting bolts, and reconnect the actuator electrical connector.
- Reinstall trim, reconnect the battery, and test operation: remote locking/unlocking, interior release, and manual key function if applicable.
Common tools: Torx drivers, ratchet and socket set (8–10 mm range), flat and Phillips screwdrivers, plastic trim removal tools. Allow about 30–60 minutes depending on experience and access to the tailgate interior.
Most Common Failure Causes
- Wear and mechanical fatigue of latch components after many open/close cycles.
- Water ingress and corrosion causing sticking or seizure of moving parts.
- Actuator motor failure or intermittent electrical contacts in the connector.
- Physical damage from impacts or forced entry attempts that bend or break the latch.
- Misalignment of the tailgate or striker causing excessive load on the lock.
Notes for Mechanics and DIYers
This lock is frequently searched for by its OEM numbers (9657614680, 8726R2), so including these references in your search improves findability. After installation, verify smooth mechanical operation and correct integration with the vehicle’s central locking—check for secure engagement, absence of unusual noises, and correct remote operation. If the vehicle exhibits central locking faults beyond the latch (for example multiple doors affected), inspect wiring and central locking components as well.
Warranty & Quality
Replacement parts supplied should meet original mounting and connector specifications. For long-term reliability, ensure sealing surfaces and surrounding bodywork are free from corrosion or damage that could compromise the new lock.
