When driving my car it idles very high at complete stop. I even unplugged the idle motor and it still does it. It doesnt do it all the time it appears to only happen once the engine gets warm. Also how do i change my trunk lock cylinder after someone tried to break into my car? Do i have to remove the back lights panel to get to it?

if you have a trunk opener on your remote use that otherwise they are normally drilled out
