Trunk Pull Down Motor
I just want to make sure I have this right before I start buying parts.
My trunk motor seems to work when I want to open the trunk, but does not pull it back down.
I push the level down on the reversing switch and nothing happens, but if I push the switch down so that the motor thinks that the trunk is closed the motor seems to work fine.
Does this man I need a new reversing switch?
The whole assembly looks like it was rebuilt recently as there is plenty of grease on it.

Re: Trunk Pull Down Motor
No secret handshake or initiation. The test procedure is simply a drawing I crudely sketched out years ago when I had a customer call requesting how to test their reversing switch. I've stored it in my desk drawer since then and shared the info with hundreds of others from that time forward. I did scan it and save it as a PDF file and can e-mail it to you.
