Default Trunk pop?

So last night I was going to my car to get something out of the trunk and I use the Keyless Remote to pop the trunk, it wouldn't pop. So i'm like wtf? maybe the battery is dead on the remote, but that wasn't the problem cause the keyless entry worked. I went inside and popped it from the inside and the trunk still wouldn't pop. So I had to manually open the trunk w/ the key.


Any ideas why the trunk isn't popping? I checked fuses, none were blown. When i'm in the car, i use the keyless remote to pop it i here a *CLICK* *CLICK* noise by the fuse box under the dash.


Thanks in advanced for the help!

When I bought the car, I had the exact issue, and the fuse was missing!!!!!!!

So change the fuse anyway.....it may look intact, and you may hear a relay click, but that does not mean voltage is getting through the fuse.......

i dont know exactly which one because i'm at work and I dont have my helms on me, but if you go outside to your car...pop your hood or look under your dash, they should be all labeled and you should be able to figure out which one to check.

Under dash....but they found it, not me. The fuse box "slots" should be labeled...
