Trunk problems

dblev · 02-16-2011, 04:46 PM

Hey! I have a 2006 330i. Last week I went to unlock the trunck with the button on the key and nothing happened! I tried to manually open it with the handle..nothing..Also the trunk release button in the cabin does not work! I can, however open the trunk manually with the metal keep inside my key contraption. Did I somehow disable the electric opening system??
Any help would be amazing!

My guess is that someone was messing around in your glove box. There is a valet 'switch' in there that disables the trunk from being opened. Flip the switch back and it should solve your problem.

Otherwise a fuse is out. Sorry, don't know which one.
