If I want to open the trunk and the car is running I have to shut off the car and use the key to open the trunk. The drivers side door has the trunk open button beside fuel tank open button. The fuel button works but not the trunk.

When I press the trunk button it I can hear the door panel making noise like it's trying to open it the trunk. The button also has a key hole. I've turned my key in there and hoped it would work but it didn't.

Also the emergency pull cord in the trunk doesn't pull. How can I tell if its broken or maybe just needs to be reset. Perhaps that has something to do with my trunk problems.

Pull the trunk latch out, clean and lube it, reinstall.
