need trunk release help??

[footballguy]

I have an 03 and mine is under the steering wheel. You could probably go to the junk yard and just pull the parts, off a newer model. I don't see why they wouldn't line up, but I could be wrong about that. Still wouldn't hurt to look into it.

I did this today to my car and it works but i used the Radio Fuse what is a fuse i can use that i do not have to have my keys in the car ignition

[muff34]

just put an inline fuse in it

i used a 2 in one fuse like this one and plug it into the dome lights fuse cuz these work with and without the key and also when the car is running. i did this and had no problems. http://news.thomasnet.com/fullstory/452713/1424

Ya i did use that 2 in one link and i used the radio fuse did u use the one labeled INT LAMP?





I have the best spot for my switch. I put it in the glove box in where there is a compartment in the door itself im guessing its for cleanx, but its sweet no one would ever know its there

yeah, int lamp is the one. and you may want to use a 12.5 or 15 fuse in the trunk release spot cuz my 10 was blowing out every couple times i used the button. but the 15 has been working for me. but keep the 10 in the int lamp spot.

Ya i have a 10 in both spots now i had a 5 n blew it but the 10 is working fine my dad was looking at it n tells me i need a new switch cause mine can click n stay on. I really don't want to take my glove box all apart again n change that but i guess its better than a dead battery. Well im really happy i found a way to open the trunk with the car running Thanks alot I owe u one

you must have a 2 postion switch, so when you push it once it comes on and when you push it again it goes off. that is what i originaly had but i changed it to a momentary push switch so that when i push it is comes on and when i let go it goes off. they are very cheap and can be found at radio shack.
