You've probably bent up something in the trunk lock mechanism. It comes off with two bolts. If you can't figure out what is bent, go to a junkyard and get one from there.I have a 2007 Acura TL Type S and everything is great, but the trunk stopped opening when I press the button. My friend closed the trunk on his backpack buckle by accident, which before that it worked perfectly, but not anymore. I can go through the backseat and unlock the actual hatch but I can't click the button on my keys or in the button left of the steering wheel. I can here the trunk click when I press the button on the key, it's trying to unlock, but just won't.
Please help
Thanks Dalton
On the 00-03 TLs, the latch has a little spring that likes to go SPROINGGGG and fly off and then the latch won't latch at all . I replaced the whole latch before I noticed the spring just lying there in the trunk.
