Need to get into the trunk - lost master key

Where is the safety latch to open the trunk from the inside on 1992 Lexus ES300. Master key was lost. Access can only be gained by small opening pass through in the center of the back seat.

Did you check your glove compartment......there is a button that can be pressed in for safty reasons and than you can not open your trunk ........once you get it unlocked you should be able to open with your regular trunk opener

You might try the dealer. They may be able to get a duplicate key based upon the VIN number or there may be a related series number on your ignition key.

2001 Lexus ES300 won't start

I have a 2005 ES330!

The dealership does all my repairs, but I found this.

This is how I reset the security system each time after disconnecting the battery:
  1. Insert master key (non-remote master) into driver's side door.
  2. Remove key.
  3. Insert master remote key into driver's side door.
  4. Remove key.
  5. Insert master key (non-remote master) into ignition.
  6. Remove key.
  7. Insert master remote key into ignition.
  8. Remove key.
The is additional information in the link. If that doesn't work, the best place to ask would be the Club Lexus forum.

3. Pull inside trunk release to see what isn't moving
4. If trunk key won't turn, the key may be worn out and need to be replaced

2000 Lexus ES300 trunk lid does not fit right on 2001 Lexus ES300

Hi, try loosening the catch on the trunk lid but do not remove it and the lock mechanism, close the trunk lid but not fully, then pull the backseats down and climb into the trunk. Adjust the lock and latch until they meet up and lock together ( This will take some time and patience is essential). Fasten the Catch and Lock back up. Then retry opening and closing, if it still doesnt fit just do the same again, just needs a bit of adjustment.

hope this helps. jonno
