Question:
I have an 02 Buick Century whose trunk can only be opened with the key. We push the button inside it, or we push the button on the keyring, and it still doesn't open. Does any one know how I can fix it myself, what part I would need, and if it is a simple enough problem that my husband can fix it? We are poor college students, so we need to go inexpensive, and if it costs too much, we just won't worry about it. Any ideas, you smart people out there?

Look around inside the trunk. There is usually a switch that deactivates the cabin trunk release. Check to see if it has been turned off. This happens to me when I put a lot of stuff in the trunk. If nothing is wrong, maybe take it to the dealer.Need help finding the fuel pump oil pressure switch ? 99 s10?
There might be a "defeat" button for this function.This is sometimes built into a car to prevent valet parkers, or service people from getting into your trunk.
Read your owners manual, or find an owners website.
