It looks like the "luggage compartment lid release" fuse (15A) is in the number 1 position within the luggage fuse box which is located forward of the battery

Good luck on your troubleshooting!

all back seats are either screwed down or hooked in. you need to use a little muscle and lift up your back seat to see which is which. there is no other way to gain entry to your trunk.Trust me Ive locked my keys in my trunk too. Now i have a hidden spare to my door and trunk. GOOD LUCK

If the electric release button and the key do not work, you may have to remove the back seat and try to gain entry that way.

You can take out the back seat, there is suppose to be a opening are an empty space try from there.

hi.
it is a little awkward but it can be done.
if you go under the car with jump leads, connect the positive lead to the thick wire on the starter motor. connect the negative to the body or chassis.
the starter lead is connected direct to the battery so it will give enough power for you to open the boot using the button or the remote.

hope this helps

My suggestion would be to open your glove compartment and pushing the valet button to release the locking mechanism for your trunk which would cause everything else not to work.

Just bought my 98 a week ago....from what I can figure out....the valet mode disables the inside button....until the trunk is opened by the key. From what I understand also....there is a valet key....and an owner key. (I saw the differences online this week) which also ties in with valet mode.

There should be a little jaguar insignia in the middle of the trunk lid . If the doors are unlocked just push it in it is a push button latch.

read your manuel, there are 3 different locations the key can be removed from and this eliminates theft if valet is used. when removed in a certain clock position, I don't remember which one but I had to look it up it locks
