2001 Jag trunk release in car and on the trunk lid will not work. Still works on remote. Thought it was a fuse and according to owners manual it is located in trunk at the number one location. Relplaced and still will not work. Any other locations?
This is a 2001 S type 3.0 Jag. The trunk release is to the left of the steering wheel on the dash. The release on the trunk is the Jaguar button in the center of the trunk. They both quit working at the same time. That is why I thought it was a fuse, but when I replaced it they still do not work. Trying to find out if there is another fuse located someplace that could be the problem. The fuse I replaced was located in the trunk by the battery. This is a 2001 S type 3.0 Jag.

Re: 2001 Jag trunk release in car and on the trunk lid...
Nope, their is only one fuse in the system, i would just make sure you replaced the right one. If you have the owners manuel it tell you were the fuses are located and what the do. Also if you replaced the propert fuse, check to make sure it did blow again, if it was blown in the first place.

The rear compartment lid release system consists of the following components:
• Body control module (BCM)
• Folding top cover actuator
• GMLAN serial data link
• Keyless entry transmitter
• Rear compartment lid ajar switch
• Rear compartment lid release actuator
• Rear compartment lid release switch
• Remote control door lock receiver (RCDLR)
• Trunk fuses
• Trunk release relay
Rear Compartment Lid Release System Operation
The rear compartment lid can be released by operating the rear compartment lid release switch or pressing the rear compartment lid release button on the keyless entry transmitter. When the rear compartment lid release switch is operated, the rear compartment lid release switch signal circuit to the body control module (BCM) is switched to ground. The BCM receives the rear compartment lid release switch input and applies ground to the trunk release relay control circuit. This energizes the trunk release relay coil, closing the switch side contacts, allowing battery voltage to be applied to the rear compartment lid release actuator and folding top cover actuator, releasing the buttresses and opening the rear compartment lid. Ground for the rear compartment lid release switch is provided at G300. The rear compartment lid ajar switch, rear compartment lid release actuator, and folding top cover actuator are provided ground at G301. The rear compartment lid will not release until the vehicle speed is zero and in park.
Do you know what DTC'S - diagnostic trouble codes are ?
DTC B3265 01 : Trunk Relay Output Short to Battery
DTC B3265 06 : Trunk Relay Output Short to Ground or Open
Do you know what a relay is an how it works ? TRUNK release relay located in the underhood fuse / relay box. VEHICLE RELAYS Operation Diagnosis
According to the owners manual, there should be a key slot around the tail lights or trunk lid. You can also use the power door lock switch to unlock the trunk by holding the switch in the unlock position.
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.
The wires that go to the trunk lid are most likely damaged or disconnected, BUT first read your owners manual to locate where the fuse(s) are for both your trunk release, and back up lamps to make sure they are not blown, replace if necessary, and re-check ... if they are fine ... then check the most likely area (where the wires move) the wires will be on either side of the trunk lid brackets ... follow them look for first a disconnected connector ... and then a broken wire in the harness ... has this vehicle had recent body work or recently toted large items such as golf clubs that may have entangled the wires?
We're working on our friends 95 Jag. He took it to a local shop and the gomer calling himself a mechanic started pushing buttons on the console. He pushed the top down button while the top was still connected. The rear windows thought the top was supposed to go down so they started rolling down. They stopped them about halfway down, but couldn't get them back up. But that isn't the problem. Now, we can't get the trunk open. The problem? The trunk is not the original. It came from a junkyard and he has never had a key. So the remote only works on the doors. How in the world do we get that trunk open. Our only thought is to go through the back seat, and that looks like way too much work. Any ideas?
I had a silimar problem an strange as it sounds replacing the rubber gasket around the top of the trunk fixed it. I had a leak and had to replace the gasket and also the remote wouldn't pop the truck. Jag dealer wanted to replace the entire trunk release mechanism (surprise, usual rip off) for several hundred dollars. I didn't do it and, good surprise, replacing the leaking gasket fixed the trunck release problem.
