Re: trunk wont open

If the trunk switch is the only thing not working the the most common thing I've found is the switch's electrical connector. Does your's have the lockout where the valet key won't work?

Re: trunk wont open

If you hear the solenoid in the trunk activating when you push the button then the problem is with the linkage from the solenoid to the latch mechanism.
