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.

The 1994 xj6 sedan. The trunk should be opened by the key unless you have green keys only (valet keys).
If this is the case then open the hood and on the firewall there is a black plastic square box with a + sign on it, lift up the plastic cover, connect your jumper/charger on a low boost and this will give you enough power to push your remote trunk release switch.

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 to open the trunk on 2004 Jaguar XJR. The battery is dead.

Hi Manuel:
Is it possible to open the hood?
If so, you should be able to attach jumper cables (Alternator or Relay?) to get the switches powered up. I'm assuming the trunk latch is electrical.

Battery is dead and trunk will not open due to dead battery so cannot open trunk to replace battery

YOU CAN PLUG IN A BOOSTER BATTERY INTO CIGARETTE LIGHTER IT WILL GIVE CAR BATTERY POWER TO JUMP START. AND YOU WILL HAVE POWER ALSO TO OPEN TRUNK ALSO TO REMOVE BATTERY.

Battery just went dead, i can't open the trunk to jump start the battery. how can i open the trunk w/ a dead battery?

If you can open the hood, you can jump start the car at the alternator. Put the positive jumper cable on the large + wire on the alternator, and attach the negative - to any bracket or to the engine block and this will start your car, or open the trunk.
