(IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) so. i REALLY need to get into my rear trunk. problem is, it wont open. PO removed the lock and place an electric latch and put the cool porsche reflector on the back. are there any alternative ways into the trunk? (access hole on the underside? lmao) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) the wiring seems to be fine and all connections are fine. i even have the JWEST fuse panel with no blown fuses. replaced the inline fuse, POP! about 3 fuses. and then nothing. ANY IDEAS? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) |

the hanger doesnt work because the lever needs to be pushed down. hard. aha, yes, the solenoid. hanger works on the stock latch. as mentioned above, put a bunch of extensions together and try to undo the bolts that hold the latch to the body. 10mm socket, if still stock ...
