Customer Question

I pulled the battery in my 1997 jaguar and had the battery checked. The battery was bad. I closed the trunk after removing the battery thinking the ignition key would open the trunk. I bought a new battery and came back to car to find that the key will not open the trunk.
How do I get into the trunk. Thanks, SK

Hello and welcome to justanswer.com

 

Go under the hood and locate the fuse box. Next to the fuse box is the power cable. Hook up the red positive lead of a jumper or booster there and the black ground lead of your booster to the body. This will give you enough power to open the trunk with the switch.
