    Little H3lp Please

    So my power locks have been iffy for the past week or so, no big deal right? Well I went to go get gas today and I couldn't open the gas lid because it's locked.

    Related symptoms include passenger door not being able to lock or unlock even from inside the car and whenever I try to lock with my alarm I can hear the locks trying to turn but won't. Any ideas? I only have enough gas for one more commute

      I think that behind the trunk carpet there is a lock solenoid for the gas door that you could maybe get at and manually release it.

            I just pulled the pin back with a screwdriver and it stayed put, phase one 100% complete. Phase two get some gas. Getting closer to the profit phase.
            Thanks for the help guys I did pull back the carpet and I think I saw the solenoid but I wasn't sure and decided to try the screwdriver first
