Do you have a remote trunk release switch of is this on of the rare cars w/o it? IUf yoiu have the switch an it's not operating, have you:

1) Checked the fuse?
2) Checked the wiring you can get to?
3) Checked the switch?
4) Checked the relay?

I had a problem where the trunk wouldn't release when I pushed the button. The fuse was good but as was the wiring. When I pulled the switch out, I found that the connector on the back of the switch had either been removed or had fallen off. I cleaned the terminals on the switch and in the connector as best I could, added a bit of dielectric grease and put the connector back on the switch. Pushed the button and bingo-bango, the trunk popped open.
