I suggest getting a helper. While you sit in the vehicle and press the button inside the passenger glove box, ask your friend to lift the trunk. If your friend can open the trunk easily, your torsion bar needs to be replaced. This acts a bit like a spring to push the trunk open when the lock releases it. Another issue could be the lock release has gummed up with dust in the lock grease. You vehicle is 21 years old and grease thickens up with dust and such over the years.
Check in the glove box for a push button to open trunk. Also along the driver's side floor sill (between the seat and the door). Along the bottom of the dash on driver's side, check there too. My son has a '92 Lesabre, and there is no trunk release-only the key opens the trunk.
Does the key you have open the driver door? Do you have a keyless entry key fob, does it work? you also might try removing the glove box and disconnecting the wires from the trunk button and touching them together with a paper clip or other small wire but before you do that look in your owners manual a determine which fuse is for the trunk release and check the fuse then the last would be to have GM dealer check to see if the key you have is the proper key fror your car and if it may be worn out
use a jumper wire connected to battery voltage and jump into circuit at switch, may have to push switch to actuate release depending on the side of switch that you are connected to
You can pull off the back seats. If they do not fold down they will have medal clips on the back of the seats. You will have to pull up hard and when they release pull forward. Takes some muscle to get it off. Do not pull forward until the seat is off all the clips or else you will bend the clips and the seat will not go back on flush as it is now.
