I have a regular locking rear trunk. No solenoid or Porsche reflector.
The trunk has opened fine every time for three years. Since Joe installed all my EFI electronics in the trunk I have started locking it. It worked fine locking and unlocking it for six months. This week, when I unlock the trunk, it will not open. The lock cylinder rotates fine with the key, but pressing the lock in does not unlatch the trunk lid. Anyone have this problem before and figure out what to do? Thanks...John |
