2: When I press the trunk release on the keyless entry, it doesn't open. You hear the noises, but it like sticks or something. Maybe not lifting out of the lock or something. I have to pull the trunk up as I press the button.
A) Trunk struts (unlikely, but possible)
B) Latch alignment (gotta check it anyway to check ...)
C) remote latch automatic opener electromechanical thingy
Remove any trim near the latch. Remove the trunk latch and follow the cable attached and running to your left to the doohicky because it might be broken. I'm assuming you didn't crawl in the trunk at any point.
Hold the latch in your hand and press the TRUNK button to see it move (you hear it so the motor is still moving). Use your key in the lock and watch what it does. Does the remote lever work correctly (need assistant), because that's a 3rd set of cables IIRC.
If they're pretty much the same, set the trunk latch back in and make sure it's alinged correctly.
If TRUNK doesn't work, go take the contraption out and replace it. Heck, take it apart if you want; watch the spring. Hold it in your hand with electrical connection and hit TRUNK. Gotta buy the whole thing (
except the rod piece which is sold seperately and not broken) from Ford when you're done. I forget how much from Bill Jenkins, but it's below $100 to my knowledge. Made in France.
