Now all works except for the trunk. It will open with the key and the cable but not with the FOB. I put my Voltmeter across the actuator input and I am getting 12 volts all the time. I assume that I should only get the 12V signal when I press the Trunk button on the FOB. Who can shed some light on this one?

Anyway, this looks so similar to the Moonroof problem. Remember the little plastic gear that wears out on the moonroof? It costs $55.00 to replace? Well, my Keyless Entry Trunk Opening Motor has the same issue. Yet, duifferent as the gear that is damaged here4 is a White Metal little gem. It has lost a tooth on the pinion side. It drives the rack that pulls the mechanism that opens the latch. I have taken it all apart, cleaned and regreased everything in an effort to make it work, if only for a while. To replace this unit will cost $90.00 with our CEG discount. Does anyone have one of these that is in good condition? I will post the results after reinstalling the unit.
