Don't take the alternator of and have it tested. You need to test the alternator on the vehicle. This will let you know if the charging system is working as a whole. The alternator must have a signal to charge the battery. In the trunk with the battery wires, there is a smaller write cunning post of the main wiring. Make sure it isn't damaged. Make sure your negative cable in the trunk is properly connected to the body. If these are good, you need to take this vehicle to a reputable mechanic for further diagnosis.

My 2003 Saturn Ion remote trunk release won't

Check to make sure the button on the trunk latch is turned from manual unlock...they made that feature so only the key will work to open the trunk that way if someone breaks in the front of your car they can't hit the trunk release and get into the trunk...may be the same thing for your remote. Hope that helps.

2003 saturn ion-release does not work for trunk release

If only the trunk release is not working, did you check to see if the little lever arm switch on the trunk lid at the latch assembly is switched to enable the release? Mine came switched to the 'Off' position when I bought it and it took me a few days to figure that one out.

It should really be on the battery #1 and #2, aren't all cars pretty much running on a 12v or 24v system these days?
