jump the battery and there should be a trunk release in car either in glove box or no dash or door.

When the PZM receives a serial data message for the activation of the trunk release solenoid from the instrument cluster or from the RFA, the PZM energizes the trunk release relay under the following conditions:
^ The transmission is in PARK
^ The valet lockout switch is not activated.

Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.
