Trunk release won't work
 

Hi again
How would I go about fixing the trunk release switch interior button.
I know that it might be locked, but I have no valet key. Just re-made ones.
Does anybody know how to jerry rig it or something?:rockon:

im running into the same problem... not so much of an inconvience since you can still open it with the key from outside... but i mean would be nice to just be able to pop it

pull off the panel and the plug should be a two wire plug. jump it with a wire and itll open. if you want to rig a button then you will need one that has a spring-ed toggle switch so that it will throw the switch back into neutral position

Thank You.
How do I jump the wire? stick them together?

The trunk release has two plugs. Top plug closest to the instrument cluster is a blue and something wire, but the bottom plug closest to the brake pedal is a green and i believe red wire. The green and red wires need to be connected together.
You should search it, there are 2 detailed writeups on this with pictures of what jumpering wires together.

Goodluck
Charley

Charley is correct, that's how I tested mine cause mine wasn't working either

How do I get the button OUT?
I just tried, and it cracked a little.

I dont want to be a jerk, but youre now in 2012, where anything and just about everything is on the net. And being in a specifically catered car market that has such an awesome search feature , you should try it out, i promise it won't bite.

Check your fuse also. It is possible for it to be blown.

I checked the "door" fuse. it looked almost corroded inside but it wasn't broken in 2. The gas cap lever works anyway.

I have the same problem, trunk release just stopped working one day, gas door release still works, I can open the trunk with the key

I searched almost everywhere and I count find it.
Would anybody else know how to dod this.

update, mine was LOCKED, must have hit the button with my knee ? trunk latch works fine

Im on my phone right now, but the title of one of the threads is called 'RePlacement nubs for center armrest'
Type that in the search and search as a title

Thank you Charley!
I will try this today.
For easier access in the future (who would have guessed were it was!)
