There are two torsion style bars that should hold it open. To get to them you have to remove the material/pressed board cover at the top of the trunk. there should be 3 pus pins near the part closest to you. the long ends of the bar get pushed into a hole in the truck lid supports. The other end is hooked into one of the three notches a bit farther to the sides of the trunk. Hopefully one is still in there for you to see. They can be really difficult to put back in. If you slip it may really hurt you. The side that links into the notches should be in the middle notch. i put it in the lowest one then hook the long end into the trunk support. you may have to pry it in with the tire lever... Then once I get that end in i slip a small wrench over the hooked end to move it up to the middle notch. Good Luck. I have had to do it on 2 of my Topazes and its a pain every time.

You do not need mercury. Just install a door jam switch in the trunk wired into a light in the cat so that when the trunk is open a light will come on in the vehicle.

How do you open the trunk without a key on Mercury Capri 1992?

To open the trunk of a 1992 Mercury Capri without a key, you can try using the trunk release lever located inside the vehicle, typically near the driver's seat. If that doesn't work, you may need to access the trunk through the back seats by folding them down, if possible, and reaching into the trunk area. Alternatively, if you're unable to gain access, consider contacting a locksmith for assistance or checking for a spare key.


How do you open gas tank on 1991 Mercury Topaz gs?

If it isn't as simple as pulling the door open then there should be a button inside the glove box that you will need to push. If that doesn't work anymore then inside the trunk there should be a pull handle to release it as well. If the button doesn't work and you aren't afraid of people stealing your gas then i would suggest once you have it open, remove the tab that latches it closed. This will make it easier to open from then on... Simply open it from the outside.
