Wink Trunk won't open

Lever inside on floor won't open trunk, key remote won't open it. Where is manual key hole?? I pulled back seat down using key inside to get in trunk, that works. Any suggestions? The gas lid opens with lever on floor inside. Thx!

there is a keyhole on the trunk lid it self (in or around the taillights) that you can put the key in and open it.

Is the lever "locked"? There is a key slot on the lever housing, try putting your key in and turning it then try the lever again.

There is also a key hole on the deck plate behind the rear seats. It should be behind the middle seat on top of the deck plate. This will allow you to fold the seats down.

There might not be an actual key cylinder on the trunk lid; that's getting more common when you have remote trunk button on your key. But look within one of the tail-lamp lenses, probably the right side.

So when you got inside the trunk, did you get it open? There's a hand-lever or something like a T-handle you can pull. Gotta get it open first, then look at latch mechanism for something broken.

Default Trunk won’t open

I have a 2006 accord coupe, the trunk doesn’t open, the cable doesn’t seem to be broken. I’ve tried using the release lever on the floor by the drivers seat and going into the trunk and pulling the emergency release and nothing happens. There was a spring going across the latch but it came off. I tried using a flat head screwdriver to push the latch over and open it but it won’t budge. I’m not sure what else to do but I really need my trunk open
