YO, I am having a problem with openning my trunk. Here is the situation.
Key fits in lock. But, will not open when turned. The trunk mechanism will not release. Also, the cable release next to fuel release lever was broken off by previous owner. So, can't use that feature. Is there any other way to open trunk so I can try to see what the problem is? Any help is greatly appreciated. frown.gif

Ok, pull up your carpet in the area where the release handle is broken off, find the cable, it will probably be in a plastic tube. Cut away part of the tube and pull the cable.

Edit: Use this as a temp solution until you get a replacement release handle. Check salvage yards. If this doesn't work, then you need to fold down the seats, crawl in there with a flashlight and pull off that plastic and replace the whole cable, because it's probably broken in the plastic tube somewhere.
