When I can I'll get the name of the good lube to use in the locks. If the key lock button down near the release is pushed in then the release won't work. And if you don't have the master or flat key it will not unlock the trunk or the button. You will have to apply power to the wires to the release solenoid.

so get to the back side of it somehow and apply 12 to the red wire?
