Default Help! Keys locked in trunk.

My keys are in my trunk and I cant get it open. I used a hanger to unlock the door then the alarm went off.(Didn't know I had one) Because of the alarm the runk release will not work. Help!

try unhooking battery and then hook it back up to see if that helps any by reseting things and maybe you could then do the trunk release.

thinking...

I don't think the hood runs off an electrical circuit like the trunk does.

I did it! I searched and found out what to do. Locating the black wire with silver dots then connecting it to the batterie. How did someone figure this out? Thanks fellas.

Exactly how did you do it? Could you at least point me in the right direction? The same thing happened to me a little while ago. . .
