I have a 91 camaro with 124000 miles that the motor driven trunk release is not working the trunk is released and the motor won't take it back down. I was told that it is one of three things, the fuse, a relay or the motor is bad. In my book I can't find any thing that references the trunk motor. Any help is appreciated.

I found a photo of the unit. It looks like the motor is under the cover by the latch itself. The relay is mounted into the harness at the motor. Not sure where the fuse is located, but Im still looking.

Ok, the fues is called the lid fuse, and is located on the fuse block. You will know if the fuse is bad because it supplies power to the cargo compartment light also. No light, suspect fuse. You got light, suspect motor or relay.
In looking at the diagram, there looks like there is a fuse located in the motor itself.
