My trunk will not lock. Is there a trick to it other than just sticking the key in and turning? Is it possible I was only given a valet key? How do you tell if it is a valet key?

thanks,

I believe I have probably found the problem. Either way this is a thread the everybody needs to read if they haven't already.

If everyone is aware of this please forgive me, it's new to me.
