01, S60T5, Trunk not unlocking S60 2001

Hi List,

Since Klaus and a few other people helped me save some money a couple of weeks ago, I thought I'd try again to get some help with a different problem as follows.

The problem is the un-locking actuator on the trunk doesn't work, I have done the following:
1. First checked with a 12V test light at the actuator and test light comes on, then off very quickly. This is connecting both terminals then pressing the trunk switch.
2. Because I thought the test light barely stayed on, then I got a Automotive multi-meter and connected it at the terminals and it showed 12.6V very quickly type on/off,
3. I have an old car battery, I probed 12V directly to the un-locking actuator and it works.

I think the problem is somewhere between the relay (if there's one) and ...

Any help and ideas will be greatly appreciated...

Thx in advance,

Helder

    Have you checked the valet override switch on the climate control panel?

    There are some relays in the trunk you might want to look at:

    The PDF is quite large, but finding the rear relays is easy.

    There is a relay, but S60s are new to me. I think you are on the right track.
