i locked my keys in the trunk. I have taken out back seats and have access to almost the whole trunk by taking the speakers out and putting my arms through those holes, i can barley see down there but does anyone know if theres an emergency release, i found the damn gas tank release but not trunk. Thanks

mikefl0308

cmh

ur trunk release button right next to the gas door release button under steering wheel doesnt work?

mikefl0308

it works but i need the key in to put power to it

you don't need power to it for it to work. it has power from the battery. most likely you need to put the key in to "unlock" the remote function.

Either your truck release button under the steering wheel is locked and you need the master key, not valet key to open it.

NO, my sc doesnt have a factory ecu or any of the computers and electronics from the factory. all the wiring is not factory and the way its set up, i need power to the car. Does any one just know if there is a emergency release????
thats all i want to know. thanks

next time that additional info might be useful ahead of time

mikefl0308

none of that info is necessary and that link doesn't help me with anything.
I'm just trying to ask a very simple yes or no question:
IS THERE AN EMERGENCY RELEASE?
YES or NO

NO...happy?

It's crowbar or locksmith time

If you would have read the thread, particularly post #4, it explains how to pop the trunk without the button. So yours needs to be powered. Either the black or the blue wire may pop the trunk if 12v is applied to it so once you remove that panel all you need is a wire long enough to reach the battery.

Then again, since you obviously know better than those who are trying to help you, enjoy your locksmith bill. Or cut through the trunk lid. At least then you'll have the keys back in 5 minutes and we'll be the unhelpful idiots who gave you all the unneeded stupid advice.

amen to that my brotha...

to the OP i know ur frustrated hommie but it was a series of questions to try and help U out. U should have stated from the get go that u didnt want help just ur question answered or let everyone know u have some weird kung fu sh* T going on with ur wiring. anyhow best of luck to ya

I actually took the time to look it up in the service manual. There's an ECU between the dash switch and the trunk so unless you dig out the ECU and provide +12v to the right pin you still aren't getting into the trunk. FWIW, the door lock ECU is in the drivers kick panel. Hit terminal 5 in harness T8 with 12 volts and the trunk should open.



Plan 2 is to give this ECU power and then try the instructions from the other thread. It's powered by the DOME circuit so if your dome light works and/or your power door locks work it may still be getting power. If that's the case then the other thread's instructions will still do the trick.

if you can look inside the trunk from speaker hole... get a stick magnet and get your key out? or a hook/coat hanger and fish your key out.
