Why doesn't the trunk lid close after the fuse has been changed?

There is an automatic/electric motor that closes the trunk lid after it clamps down. After clamping the motor does not engage to close the trunk lid.

Check to see if the motor is receiving power. If not, check and/or replace the relay.
