Strange noise from trunk locking mechanism when unlocking

[Oz10]

Everytime I unlock my car whether it be from the inside or outside I hear a loud screeching type noise coming from my trunk. I figure it has to be the rear locking mechanism. My trunk also can only be locked by using the lock on the trunk. I've never dealt with anything like this so any advise you could give me would be super helpful. Thanks.

If I have to just cut the wire thats fine. I can just lock it from the back. But I've got to get rid of this noise. It's really embarrassing. :(

is it that loud?

i feel like i have heard some pretty bad noises from the area when i try to lock it with the drivers door open.

Yeah its REALLY loud. Like you can hear it from across the parking lot. I'm probably just going to try to disconnect what ever it seems to be coming from and hope that works.

Don't cut: unplug.

Start with the gas cap lock.

Alright I got to the bottom of it. I just unplugged the rear locking mechanism and that did the trick.
