SOURCE: 2001 hundai accent cannot unlock car doors with key. It worked on doors lastmonth. Have used lock deicer, wd-40 to no avail. Key works in ignition & trunk.

dose the key turn in the lock you could have a worn door lock where the plastic link bar on the back of the barrel gets a bit worn and just dosnt pull the link bar up enough , you realy need to remove the door pannel and really look at whats happening to the lock from inside the door checking the movement when you turn the key to unlock position you may even take up any play on the link bar to the latch lock by putting a slight bend in the bar to take up the slack

98 Ford Taurus ignition key starts car but won't manually open trunk

I'm guessing you bought the car used this happened to me and it was because the trunk had been replaced from a wreck and thus ended up being keyed different A locksmith can make you a new key otherwise its a pain Cuz if the battery goes dead you can't open it

Hello. The electronic opener needs new battery. Change it and it will open. The dealer can get you a new key. Get the Vehicle Identification Number & Bill of sale or good proof it is your car and they will help you get a key.

My trunk wont open by pulling the floor board lever or by using the key manauly how can i open the trunk.

Hi Sparklen,You'll need to look at the end of the cable close to the release lever and pull the broken cable with pliers, that should do the job. Once open, trace the routing and replace the cable. Regards Johngee10

'91 LS400, trunk will not open. key will not turn, electric latch switch clicks but won't open. valet lock in open position. Tried 1) disconnect battery, reconnect battery, use switch, push down on...

If you hear the sound of the electric latch switch, then it's working but stuck somehow. Just put the key in the switch and turn it to the right and then pull up the trunk or ask someone to help you. it will open. I tried it today and it opened with me. It was stuck from inside by some kind of a broken plastic pieces. Just removed it and now it's working fine. good luck

Battery for 2005 lincoln ls is in the trunk and we cant open the trunk. (battery is too dead to use the keyless remote pad on the driver's door) Is there anothe way to boost this car and get it running?...

The Ignition Key for a Lincoln LS
should open the trunk
I have a 2004

Jumping a dead battery is an unsafe practice

Raise it up in the front & put a battery
charger on the starter battery cable and
ground anywhere on chassis

Just bought this car I can't open the trunk with ignition key

It either has had the trunk replaced and the old cylinder wasn't installed, or the key you're using is the valet key. See if you can lock/unlock the glovebox. If you can't you're using the valet key. If you can, your trunk lock cylinder is not original.

My key wont unlock the trunk anymore but the remote opener does.

There is a cable that runs from the key cylinder to the latch mechanism. There are clips that hold the cable housing in place, and if one of those comes loose then turning the key just moves the housing without releasing the latch. Check the clip closest to the latch. To get the trunk open drop the back seat, crawl in, and pull on the cable.

It is also possible that the cable is broken or damaged and needs to be replaced -- I assume you will then need to replace the enrite assembly.
