Access glow in the dark release on drivers side of boot lid inside trunk via ski pass through door behind center armrest of rear seat. As I understand it if batteries are dead emergency relase does not work. There may be alternate means of providing power to use this switch by attaching a 12v charging wire to cigarette kighter.

SOURCE: Chevy Impala 2007 trunk lid release

Fold down rear seat and climb in the trunk....there is a manual release at the center of the trunk lid. (mandated by the government to kids don't get trapped in the trunk).

SOURCE: I have a 2000 Bentley and I can't remove the rear set to pull the manual trunk release

If I am not mistaken, you have to remove the head rests, remove the bottom bench, fold down the armrest and remove the bolts behind it (Note: At the bottom, the bolts for the seat are held in by a clip... You just take a flathead screwdriver and pry it forward and it will then release. Make sure you dont let the seat-belts retract; it be difficult to get it back.) Typically, it takes about 2 hours to remove the seats. You will also need a metric set of Allen and Socket Wrenches to remove the bolts.

2005 Bentley GT trunk will not lift or close when remote button pushed. Have plenty of battery power.

does the lock unlock function work? if not you need to reprogram the key fob most likely. does the "B" on the boot(trunk) lid open the trunk? if not but the lock unlock function works on the key fob you most likely need a trunk(boot) motor or latch

Emergency trunk release

Usually, the "T" handle is an emergency release, in case someone becomes locked in the trunk, believe it or not.

It's attached to a cable that activates the latch mechanism.

Water leak boot

you have to pull the cover on the boot lid I think the screws were T25 or T30. once you lower the cover there is 2 clear tubes that are your drain tubes for the boot lid. sometimes leaves and other things get stuck in there and clog the tubes causeing this exact issue. take the tubes off and either get air to blow through them or get a object like a hanger to clean them out just watch not to puncture the tubes.
install and the cover and you should be good. hope helps

How do i open fuel cap to put fuel in bentley continental

you will probably find that the small spring at the hinge to open the door when the release is activated has broken
try with the help of a friend activating the release to open the door manually
otherwise you may have to go in through the boot, remove trim and undo the latch bolts to allow the latch to let the door open
