If you can not use a key or lower the back seat,

jack up the car & put a battery charger on the starter
cable from battery & ground the black charger cable to
sub frame,engine etc & charge for awhile to see if the
remote will work.

There should be a positive jumper cable terminal under the hood. Use another car and jumper cables to power the Jag and the trunk latch should work.

Look under the boot handle near the number plate light and you'll see a hole where you can use your key to open the boot.

SOURCE: Can not open trunk, Jaguar s-type

Look under the "U" in "Jaguar" on the chrome strip on the trunk. You'll find a key slot where you can insert your ignition key. You may have to remove the license tag frame (if you have one) to get the key into the slot.

How do you open trunk if battery is dead

Use your ignition key to unlock the boot (trunk) by inserting it into a small keyhole under the chrome lift on trunk lid. It took me a while to figure it out when I first purchased my jag.

My batter is dead for my 2001 Jaguar S type. How do I get into the trunk to change the battery?

If there is not a key lock release on the rear, or a manual release on the inside, you could remove the bask seat and go into the trunk that way. Another trick you could do is wire a 12v battery to a plug that goes into the cegarette lighter outlet. That would give you power to pop the locks.

How do you acces trunk of jaguar s type to jump start battery if the battery is dead and won't allow entrance to trunk

Use your ignition key in the keyhole under the lip of the boot lid by the number plate or hidden under the boot chrome trim, all these cars have an overide to the electric boot opener its either a key at the boot or sometimes a cable pull inside the cabin or by the rear seat.
good luck - hopes this helps.

Battery repeatedly goes dead Jaguar 2001 S type

Pull the fuses and check with a volt meter until you find the circuit that is leaking electricity ... I think you will find something is on all the time ... like a trunk or engine space light.

2001 Jaguar S-Type 4.0 battery is dead. Battery located in trunk of vehicle. Trunk is not accessible due battery dead.

There's a key hole. I own the same CAR and use it. You have to look under the silver band, and near the two plate lights you will find the hole. Believe me
