If the relay is functioning but the trunk won't open, it could be an issue with the trunk release mechanism or a blown fuse. First, check the fuse related to the trunk release in the fuse box. If the fuse is fine, inspect the trunk release switch and the wiring for any damage. If those components appear intact, consider manually unlocking the trunk from inside the vehicle or having a professional assess the lock mechanism.

If the trunk of a 2005 Cadillac XLR won't open with the key or release switch, you can try accessing it through the rear seats. Fold down the rear seats to reach the trunk area, and look for a manual release mechanism or a way to pull the trunk release cable. If this doesn’t work, you may need to consult a professional locksmith or a dealership for further assistance. Additionally, check the car's battery and fuses, as electrical issues can sometimes cause trunk release problems.
