The trunk key won't work any more. the release button by the steering wheel will work providing the release button inside the trunk is switched to the open position, but sometimes it pops over to the unlock position when the trunk is closed, causing me to have to check it every time i open the trunk. why won't the trunk key work? it's supposed to!
My Ion trunk would not open-"frozen" lock cylinder, latched rear seats, and valet switch tripped. So, I pried the the middle back seat to reveal a small view of the inside of the trunk which I braced open with a flashlight. The I threaded a dowel rod through the hole to press the "valet" release switch, which then allowed the electronic trunk release to open it. I then unlocked (and taped) one rear seat in case I ever need to crawl in again to hit the valet switch manually.
Check trunk fuse
SOURCE: location of fuse for trunk release
look in the owner's manual - the fuses are by the drivers pedals in the console. there's a chart in the manual of which fuses operate what; then when you take the fuse panel cover off it shows which fuse is where.

The remote won't ework because the problem is in the vehicle. Just for test purposes and possible remedy. Remove and clean the negative battery cable. Ensure a clean , tight connection. Then find the body ground. Yhis ground is locted usually at the top rear of the engine. .I's a snall stainless steel strap bolted to the engine and fire wall, This must olsobe clean with a good contack. Might as well clean the + cable and connection on the battery while you are there. Good luck and keep me posted olease. Good Luck, Ned_
