I locked my keys inside my 2004 focus. Is there anyway I can open the door or trunk to retrieve them

The best ideas that I can give you is first did you have a power trunk button and can you get into the passenger compartment of the vehicle doors open ///y/n if yes get to the plug for the trunk and press the button if it works great if not still take out the trunk switch and run +/-wires from the battery to the plug connector some will work that way if not next move is to take out the rear seat top and bottom if you don't have a lot of stuff in there and can see the keys get a long magnetic pick up tool or magnetize a long steel rod and try to touch the key rings not the key itself / if not a hanger or long stiff metal hanger / still no luck try to get a small child into the trunk through the braces to get the keys unless you have a fold down seat the do it yourself all thee above are possible without damaging the lock in the trunk most focus models have a fold down rear seat but I'm trying to help anyway that I can from my knowledge of ford vehicles but taking out the back seat you should be able to do it if you have axcess to the inside if not get a big tire iron and gently pry open the door from the top and try using an antenna mast or a long aluminum flat piece to shape to get to the door lock button or a slim Jim to open the door that's all I can think of and I hope this helps you and I know how easy it is to lock the keys in the trunk when your looking for something or picking up and you put your keys down and bingo as you close the trunk the light bulb comes on oh my what I just did we've all done it just stay calm and you will prevail I am a taxi mechanic in nyc.with 50 years experience and I have had to get in myself because drivers have not only locked the first set but the spare set to in the car after they get in now that's a 3 stooges move right you betcha good luck stephen

It's not going to seem very helpful, but the only way that you'll be able to take care of this is to manipulate the lock from the inside. This is, of course, assuming your keys are stuck inside your car. If not, attempt unlocking the door by physically using your keys.

If your keys are locked in your vehicle, use the AAA wedge on the door and attempt to retrieve the keys -- they physically will be able to manipulate the lock. If the keys are gone, you could attempt wedging the door open and using a metal or plastic bar or plate to bypass the lock on the door itself (passing it between the door closing mechanism and the frame of the vehicle). If you're desperate, and don't have the keys anyways, it may just be time to break a window and do things the old fashioned way.

Does your seats in the back of the car lift up so that you can see into the trunk? There should be something that you can pull from the backseats that will allow them to lift up and you should be able to retrieve your keys.

I have a key to start my car but no key to unlock my trunk and i have look for a lach it is a 2000 ford focus how can i get in or if i get a key made would it work

You might have a power trunk button try to look for it also you should download your owners manual at ford owners.Com it should give you the location and your fuse box diagrams and other information now the seat you will have to unbolt it the side panels pop out and are held in with clips the bottom of the seat may pop out by pushing inwards but this also could be bolted in look around the bottom also when you pop out the side panels you might gain accessories to the rear deck bolts that the third brake light is attached to and radio speakers if applicable anyway you should be able to axcess the trunk by this path it's going to be a pain in the gozompus but you can get in I don't own a focus but from memory of getting stuff in junk yards I'm trying to help you so excuse me if I'm wrong here or there so pull out the door seals that go around the door opening there might be panel bolts in the frame and seat bolts behind once you get to them you should be able to get to the levers also I know that the lock was possibly frozen when you put in the key knocking in the weather shield and jamming the lock cylinder you can try putting the key in and keep trying to turn it while banging the trunk where the cylinder is and you might jar it loose that metal flap has a spring on it and those 2 things are stopping the key from turning the other alternative is to try using a very small screwdriver to try to move it out of the way so the key will turn you have to be gentle here digging in like crazy will not help and last of all if you can't get in then use a drill and destroy the cylinder completely and a long screwdriver and a hammer will get you in you'll have to change the cylinder anyway so whack away at it if all else fails good luck stephen

Question is why cant you unlock trunk? Ok in the focus on the inside of the trunk you have the unlock for the seats which would mean that you would need to be able to open trunk. So maybe i can help you figure your trunk out. Get me more info on why cant you use a key and if the button on the dash works to pop trunk or not. I will be more than happy to help.

This is the key security system. Somehow youv'e set it off. Used the wrong key tried to open the door with the alarm on. Opened the door or trunk from the inside after locking it from the outside. If your the real owner of the car it'll be no problem to get it fixed. If you have the correct key lock the doors from the outside with the key and lock it twice ( the doors ( all of them ) should lock). Leave the car alone for a minute, maybe 5. Then unlock the door twice, all the doors should unlock the second time. Enter the car and start it with the key. If you with a remote door lock fob that can work too. If this fails then try a different door or even the trunk. Sometimes the driver doorlock switch wears out or gets ice in it and unlocking a different door or useing the remote can get you going again.

The key lock mechanism may not be working or connected.
Or, the power door lock, if equipped, may not have power to the solenoid that releases the trunk, or the cable to the release is broken or not adjusted correctly.

Good luck on this repair.

please have the door lock check out!- that is a mechanical problem in the lock!

The driver's side door lock button is designed not to lock from the inside unless the handle is pulled, or the power switch is used. This serves as a reminder to not lock your keys inside.

If you are inside, and push down on the button (not the switch) hard enough to lock it, you've probably damaged it.
