Default How to get the trunk to open?

I have the Mastergrade CF trunk without the keyhole...
All of a sudden the trunk release button no longer works...
My alarm can no longer open the trunk either...

Anyone know how I would get into the trunk? I'm about to take a hammer and smash it open...
I need to get some stuff outta there ASAP...

Any ideas XViper or anyone else that had the same problem????

Thanks

You've tried the trunk release in the secret compartment? If none of them work you're may be in trouble...

Yes the alarm opens the doors...
It seems like the trunk release motor has died or the wiring is no longer connected...

If two independent 'buttons' fail, could it be a simple fuse which is blown?

Good luck,

If it were me, I would just check every fuse and relay. The ones under the hood and under the dash. Because it may not say which one goes exactly to the trunk release. But one of them has to go to the release and if one is popped, then that may just be it. Good luck.
