Topic name says it all. I spoke to an SA who to check the master fuse in the trunk. I checked the fuse diagram and don't see anything labeled for the trunk. It's not that big of a deal since my fat butt can't bend down to hit the release button anyway, but it is something that doesn't work that I'd like to fix. I see there is a little fuse box above the release button, but can't figure out how to remove it, let alone replace it. Thanks.

insert the key into the trunk and turn it (forget which way) and see if that gets it working. i believe by turning the key a certain way, you disable the trunk in case you valet your car or something.

I had the same issue that left me scratching my head for awhile. Just follow the instructions from the previous post and turn the trunk lock with the key.
