Default Trunk wont open by key or inside push button

Hey there first of all my 02 S just passed 100K this weekend!
Now the bad news last week I found my trunk button on the key no longer popped the trunk.
I then tried the inside trunk release button and trunk did not open.
My key will open the trunk without issue when I manually open the trunk.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Fuse, relay, or maybe even check if the connector came loose.

If the car has been parked for a while I would check to see if you have traces of mice in the car. I recently just had one of my cars wiring decimated by friggin mice. I just cleaned the car the previous week so I could finally take it out for a drive and found my car not working.

It's a sign you have too many cars when mice start eating the wires...

Never had a problem before this year so your argument is moot.

I suggest you take a look at your GQ also before it happens to you.

If my argument was moot, you wouldn't be having this problem.


Mine's good - I've driven it 3 out of the last 5 weekends!
