Trunk constantly opens by itself???
Greetings all,
i picked up an ‘02 with 32k on it a few months back. Its just sitting in the garage until i have time to go through everything in the Spring time, Timing belt/water pump, fluids, belt, filters, brakes,etc.
i have noticed that since i have gotten the car that i often find the trunk popped. At first I assumed that it auto popped when detecting a battery with low voltage but i have since fully charged it and have it on a tender. The key fobs are sitting in a drawer and arent manipulated.
Anyone have any ideas on this one? When I closed the drivers door yesterday I heard the trunk pop. Weird

There is a manual trunk release cable in the bottom of your glove compartment under a little panel, it has a green handle. Maybe someone used that to open the trunk and it did not retract back into the locked position.
