I own a 2001 Olds Aurora. Trunk does not always open--either with remote or button. I can hear the click but it doesn't open every time.

The click your hearing is the solenoid in the trunk activating. This is probably a mechanical issue. Get the trunk open and look for the latching mechanism, using a fine oil such as wd-40 spray the mechanism. Open and shut the lid to work the parts and re-spray it and again open and shut it. You may want to use your key to open it and lube that lock as well to prevent it from seizing.

Thanks Paul! I carpool three kids to school and I really needed to find the answer! Thanks again!
