Did you U ever figure this out? I am having this problem right now with my coupe. When I unlock the trunk by the fob or button inside the car I hear the release but trunk still doesn’t open.
09' Genesis 4.6 sedan. Fixed mine by releasing the wires on the passengers side, after the hinge connection. Cut out the hot wire a couple inches after the connection and a couple inches before the inner body connection and replaced. Not my best work, since it's difficult to contort myself in an inverted position, in the trunk. Especially when it was 20° outside in late November. I had actually planned on replacing all 6 segments of wire, but the one did the job and has worked ever since. I did not reconnect to the rear passenger body panel, because that seemed to be the reason that the wire had a break. Taped the 6 wires back together and good to go. It doesn't seem like it bends the wires too much, but if you use the trunk often enough, obviously it does.
Thank you! I was going nuts lol
The 2017 does
Issue with the truth release has been fixed there is a lock in glove box check to ensure it hasn't been locked
Nope on the older models there is an issue with the wiring. As in mine…I have cleaned out all the connections in the back and the trunk lid but when I try to open, I can hear the front relay and that is it. Rarely it will open but is very weak. I may try to change the relays in front but for the last 2 years I have to open with the key…old school
It might be worth it to lube the trunk latch surfaces to see if it helps a weak release. Intermittency could be caused by a bind.
.
inside the glove box on top theirs a small button for the trunk.
Thanks! Mine WAS the override button. I was about to start fuse hunting!
Awesome you helped me even now with my 2017 g80 3.3
