That's a pretty good idea

Hi! Do you have a link for the switch ? Thank you 🙏🏼

You are right, but it is so much better than not opening at all.

What do I need to do to make it lock and unlock properly

What I did was ground the wire so it connects to the metal on the locking mechanism. This way you can access it through the square opened hole (this is the hole you pop off the assembly first that enables you to manually pop the trunk from the inside). I then used a rare earth magnet to keep it live and in contact to the ground when I want it open, when I want to lock it I remove the magnet and let the wire loose. Although it’s definitely hodgepodge when you are in a shady part of town or something you can lock it by removing the magnet. To open again a, you’ll have to open manually and place the magnet to run the wire to the ground again. Gives you the option without having to change the actuator in the passenger door to get back to ‘normal’-ish and works for me as I’m not in shady places too often. I hopes this helps someone🙏God bless 💗

​@@dalenix7255not always, but usually it is a failed microswitch in the right front door lock actuator which provides ground to the hatch actuator when you press the hatch release button on the handle. Replace the RF actuator assembly to repair.

You are very right I appreciate the help

So, are you making a switch for the ground connection basically?

@@dawsonbrown8074 yes
