So wish I searched this two weeks ago. After 3 appts and $800 charges today the Chevy dealer called us to tell us it is the trunk latch and it was done in an hour. Though after $400 for another part that didn't fix the problem and several hours of labor cost the bill is $800. Grrr. Your video is awesome I am a 72 yr old gal and I think I could have fixed it myself with your explicit instructions.

Just did this. Only way to open the trunk was from the manual pull from inside. At first i thought it was just a blown fuse so I swapped it out and popped the trunk open and it worked until I closed it and tried again lol. Was blowing the fuse each time so I replaced the latch on the trunk as you did and replaced the fuse again and boom! Everything works as normal. Thank you for saving the people money 👍🏼

So if your fuse blows when opening the trunk it is because the trunk release Solonoid is shorted . So by changing it , it will no longer blow

Hi....I have a 2015 Impala LTZ also and I'm having the exact same problem with my trunk fuse popping. It doesn't happen evey time I open the trunk, but it has blown like three times in the past two weeks. I have an extended warranty and have taken it to my local Chevy dealer and they weren't able to recreate the problem. How can you tell if a new latch will fix the problem??
@christianmiller7954
3 жыл бұрын
I would first take your key fob and try repeatedly opening and closing your trunk latch at least 20 times then go and try it with your push button on the dash repeatedly also. You need to get this thing to blow a fuse constantly. Or else they will try and ride you out till the end of your warranty.let me know how that’s goes when you try that .

So in theory if the latch was the problem it wouldn’t blow the fuse if the wires going to the latch were unhooked.? Cause I’ve unhooked the latch and it still blows the fuse.

Mine wouldn’t close so I switch it for a new one. When I plugged the new one in the factory alarm went off as if it was broken into but it stopped when I hit the unlock button on the remote. I was able to get it closed but now it won’t open. I’ve tried opening it from the button on the trunk, the button on the dash inside the car, and when I try using the remote the lights flash. I’m so lost. Any idea what it could be?
