Truck won’t open

[hayden5.0]

My trunk will not open with the key or button in car I can only get it to open manually. I had it open while wait for a tow truck then closed it and it wouldn’t open when I tried to open it again.

I did a Google search and you may want to look into the wiring harness, or the latch may be stuck, or perhaps a problem with the electronic release mechanism.

I’m just confused as it worked like half and hour earlier. It was sitting with my hazards on so idk if it was like a battery or safety thing. It’s all the dealer right now so I’ll have them look tomorrow

How do you open the trunk manually? I have only ever used the key or the button in the car.

Crawl through the back seats and pull the emergency release

Had to do that quite a few times on my grandpa's 300C when the battery went dead because of a phantom drain.

I imagine it's a lot more fun on the mustang

I don't know either, but there is a third button, above your license plate. But that's not manually either.

I had a 2020 Ecoboost before my GT. Battery died while getting wheels and tires. Trunk wouldn’t open so my guy had to crawl through the back seat and open the trunk using the manual trunk release. (Not sure how or why the battery died).

Something probably triggered or sparked the problem. Hopefully the dealer will get you back up and running again reasonably as far as the fix and cost. Please let us know what they find. Good luck to you, my friend.

pulled the fuse myself and put it back, and now it's fine. Don't know how it happened to begin with, but it's fixed
