Greetings,

Where is the trunk fuse box location? Am trying to open the trunk to change the dead battery. It won't open manually. Charged under the hood with the new battery. All lights came on and it seemed as if it wanted to crank. We now believe it is the trunk fuse or could it saltwater corroding the hinges preventing the trunk from releasing. We can open the driver's side door from the outside though it sticks a bit. All other doors can only open via the inside. I was thinking the trunk may have the same issue?

because the battery is bad it has set the anti theft to engage that is why you can't get it open.put either a jumper cable on to jump start position and then try opening trunk with key on. then replace the battery. you may have to have the anti theft reset not sure if it's key operated etc. the jump start pole should be under hood.

You may need to go to a Jag dealer if this needs re setting.
