    How do you get into the trunk when the trunk release button on the dash isn't working?

  • Kevin Wood May 11, 2009

    I also have a 2006 Chrysler 300 that the trunk release will not work on. It will not work with the dash button or the remote/key. There is no key opening option on the trunk itself. To get in the trunk I have to fold down the back seat and crawl in to release with the emergency handle. I can't find the fuse number in the owner's manual. The dealer has no idea (by initial phone request anyway).

    Is there anything else that is not working. Have you checked the fuses. Have you looked to insure that the wire to the trunk latch is pluged in and has a good connection.

    My release works but I cannot get the latch to engage when I close it.

Check for broken wires running from the body to the trunk lid through the rubber boot.When the trunk is closing you can see the kink in the rubber boot.There are 11 wires to supply 1 solenoid so I think Chrysler knew there was problem.

The trunk release buttons on my 1995 Olds 88 starts the car but does not open the trunk!

Seems to me the auto start and your factory key fob have the same freq. if it is a factory remote start there is something crossed somewhere. You should be able to find a disconnect switch for your remote start somewhere( in fuse box area or underneath the dash) once found follow the wire to the remote start receiver. Visually check wires and try and get a make and model number of the remote starter. Google the wiring diagram for that type of RS.

If it has the electric trunk release, the button could be in the glove box.
Otherwise you may have to remove the back seat to gain entry to the trunk.

Trunk will not release with key remote but i hear click noise from fuse block on passenger side dash i have no manual so i dont know what fuse operates what also never have found any other trunck release...

If the actuator mechanism is functioning (you hear the click) the next step is to see if the cable is connected to the latch. Open your trunk and press the button - watch what happens. You may have to manually 'lock' the trunk with the trunk lid open to observe the action. You can always unlock this latch with your key if necessary.

Let me know what happens ... good luck

Open the trunk and check the wires near the right hinge. You'll probably have some cut wires that will need to get re-connected that go to your lights and trunk release.

Trunk release button on the dash will not release trunk. Key remote does. Why

The trunk is opened by an electric solenoid. There should be fuse in the fuse panel for it. Check to see if the fuse has blown.
