How do you fix the trunk latch release on a 2000 Mercury Cougar it does not even work with the key-bob Thanks?

Answer 1

inside the trunk is an emergeny pull cord. when u turn the key there is a little piece on that cord that the key pulls on... u can only fix it with the trunk open though. so to open it get the remote or have a second person to open the trunk right after u press the botton. open it while the latch is rewinding
