Shatzy Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 Hey Lister's, The store clerk offered to load items into the trunk for this old timer. Unfortunately, one item was too high and interfered with the lid closing properly. I now have intermittent problems with opening the trunk with the key fob, or the button on the dash. Fortunately, The key will open the trunk. This has also affected the brake light mounted on the trunk lid which is no longer working. Should I get stopped by law enforcement due to the light not working, I believe I have only 10 days to have it repaired in MD before they suspend the registration, so there is a bit of urgency to this request for help. I'll appreciate any suggestions on a fix. Email responses are welcome: SMihaly137@aol.com Thanks much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockfangd Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 I would pull the liner from inside the trunk by the latch and check the plugs that go to the actuator and third brake assembly. One or both may be broken or unplugged. I would say that whatever the problem is should be easy to spot. Welcome to CaddyInfo.

rockfangd Posted August 4, 2017 Report Share Posted August 4, 2017 You could substitute a fine needle nose pliers I have found that other than the correct panel tools that is the only thing that works in a pinch, At least without damaging other things. Or use a pair of wire cutters and cut them and replace them when reinstalling the panel. Good luck to you GM FAN FOREVER Nice, clean, luxury= fine automobile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
