mbh Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 My 1997 Lexus ES300 trunk push button (located on the driver side - left, dash) will not actuate (pop) my trunk open. My battery remote can sucessfully pop the trunk and my key can manually open the trunk. So I think it's the push button..... I am a novice mechanic, and don't know electrical, wiring, panel work, etc. very well. Can anyone give me some pointers on how to fix this problem. Thank you.

RayK42 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Make sure your door locks are unlocked and try again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbh Posted March 27, 2012 Author Share Posted March 27, 2012 I tried today to push button in the 'lock' and 'unlocked' positions - both did not open the trunk when I pushed the trunk button. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbh Posted March 27, 2012 Author Share Posted March 27, 2012 I found it! I saw a similar trunk thread. Solution was: Glove compartment has a Trunk Button activaiton / deactivation toggle switch. I must have gone to my glove compartment and accidentially diasbled the trunk. All is well thanks to this site. Sure am glad I didn't take to a mechanic for help!
