What is the Trunk Lock Actuator all about?

The trunk or hatch on your vehicle is designed to store or transport your belongings safely. It is locked with a keyed lock cylinder, and if your vehicle is equipped with a power trunk release button, there is a trunk lock actuator mounted to the keyed lock cylinder. When entry to the trunk is requested through electrical input, either by a trunk release button inside the car or by pressing the trunk release button on a key fob, the trunk lock actuator releases the trunk latch in the same way turning a key in the lock cylinder would. When the trunk lock actuator fails or is too weak to release the trunk latch, you may not be able to access your belongings in the trunk without using the key in the lock cylinder.

Keep in mind:

The trunk actuator can usually be activated by button or remote control. If one doesn’t work, try the other to see if the problem is with the actuator or the control method.
If the power trunk lock actuator doesn’t function, a manual trunk lock cylinder can be used to access your belongings in the trunk.
In some vehicles, a valet switch in the glove box will turn off the power trunk release. If the trunk lock release doesn’t work, check to make sure the valet switch is not engaged.
A wiring problem or burnt fuse may mimic the symptoms of a failed trunk lock actuator. Have one of our expert mechanics check the system to determine the exact cause of failure.

How it's done:

The trunk lock actuator is verified to be broken
The inside trunk trim panel trunk is removed and the broken lock actuator is removed
The new trunk lock actuator is installed
The trunk lock actuator is tested for proper operation and the inside trim panels are reinstalled
The trunk lid is opened and closed to check the latch and lock actuator operation

Our recommendation:

If the key still turns in the lock cylinder but the trunk will not open with either the trunk release button inside the car or on your key fob, you may need to replace the trunk lock actuator.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Trunk Lock Actuator?

Power trunk release will not function but the manual trunk lock cylinder operates
Power trunk lock button and remote key fob release buttons don’t work
Audible click at the trunk lock when the release button is pressed but the trunk doesn’t open

How important is this service?

The trunk lock actuator is part of a convenient power trunk release system. If it doesn’t operate as designed, you’ll have to open the trunk through the manual key lock cylinder instead. You can replace it at your convenience.

Volkswagen CC L4-2.0L Turbo - Coolant Reservoir - Houston, Texas

Stellar Service! Ben Smith in Houston, Tx. was exactly what I prayed for! Being a female with no experience at all on cars- I was indeed leery. However, the moment this guy pulled up and asked questions about the car and started checking my car from the front to the rear I felt at peace. As he dove into my issue on my VW CC- I felt even better. I had read his reviews and had asked specifically for him due to his ratings and let me tell...you every single word the Customers before me mentioned about him; was indeed true and much more! His credentials ARE AMAZING! NEVER MIND THE FACT THAT THIS GUY SERVED OUR COUNTRY! HE IS ALSO A MARINE! I FELT LIKE I RECIEVED A GOLD STAR FOR HAVING CHOOSEN HIM. I AM INDEED A LIFER. "YOUR MECHANIC", HAS BEEN OFFICIALLY ADDED TO MY CALENDAR AND LOCKED IN MY PHONE (SPEED DIAL OF COURSE). OH AND DID I MENTION THE PRICING WAS BETTER THAN MOST QUOTES I HAVE RECEIVED! THANKS FOR YOUR AMAZING SERVICE BEN! YOUR COMPANY HAS A CERTIFIED DIAMOND! SIGNED A LIFER Ms. Proctor

2015 chrysler [200](/topics-200/), 4 liter . Car can't start because the [brake](/topics-brake-chrysler/) pedal can be put into the start position. I've been able to turn it on once. Before this situation the radio went out . I'm not sure if that's part of the issue. Looking into it this car alhas a crazy amount of problems so I don't really know what it can be. I have taken the [battery](/topics-battery-chrysler/) out since it died. I have checked the vacuum lines they are fine.
