Right if youre lucky as the key lock has gone in if you can get on teh end of the metal rod with long nosed pliers and pull or push it then it will open ,now if lock was a staright push type then a push the lever behind inwards and boot (trunk) will open ,if your unsure then ask a local mechanic as he will open it in seconds for you .

Trunk full and cant open

On that car there is a trunk pass-through in the center of the back seat. Pull it down and try to get some of the stuff out so the trunk can open. If you can't get any of the stuff out. Push down on the trunk hard a couple of times and reach your arm through the pass-through and push up on the trunk while someone pulls the trunk release. You can also reach in there and just try to maneuver some of the stuff around to get it from pressing up on the trunk.

The problem is with it being so full it is probably pressing up on it causing the latch to not be able to fully release. This is why pushing down on the trunk hard may help.

Anyways good luck.

'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

Can,t open trunk even with key

there is an emergency latch on the inside, only suggestion I have is to open your rear seats and try and open it from here, it may be sealed shut.
