Some simple things can work. Does the key turn? No? spray some releasing oil, (WD40 type), into the key hole and leave it to soak in for at least ten minutes. You might need a small screwdriver to open the spring loaded cover on the front of the lock. If the key turns try pushing down ******* the trunk lid to take the pressure of the latch.
Can you get access to the trunk from inside the vehicle by dropping the rear seats? Get a helper to push down on the trunk lid, climb into the trunk from inside the vehicle. There should be an emergency pull cord in the centre of the vehicles rear panel. Pull and hold this cord and get your helper to repeatedly push down and pull up on the trunk lid. This might 'pop' the trunk.
ask a local mechanic to have a look as you have locked it and the only way to open it now is to unbolt the hasp on the car body from the inside ,very difficult job may i add
By switching the lever you locked the inside trunk release, you will need to put lever back. as far as the trunk you may need to remove the rear seat, pop lower part out and then remove the bolts to the top half of the seat then try to reach the lever so it will open from the inside. i've found that many of these cars with the pop lever inside have sticking trunk locks from not being used, what you do first is spary lock good,with wd40 or pb blaster then slide key in and out and try to turn this may take a whhile but it works then tumbler will free up, you just have to keep spraying inside lock and working the key.
There should be a little leather strap that is hanging toward the rear of the trunk where the latch is... pull this and the trunk should pop open for you.
Yes, insure that you have power to the trunk lock inside trunk, If not could be lose/broken wire or shot fuse. I am sure the key fob does work for the doors? If not have key fob battery replaced. Also, a quick check on power to trunk lock, check to see if have remote power button inside car, if it works power is good. Defective key fob would then be indicated.
