sc 300
Hello
I am totallly lost , I managed to lock my keys, my only key in the trunk. Have called a locksmith paid him to open the car only to learn that the maunal unlocking of my car has trigered some type of security defoult and I am no longer granted acsess to my trunk via the trunk release lever on the interior.
I have spoken to upwards of twenty some lock smiths, they are clueless, the dealer says to get it towed to their shop and they will electronically fix.
I can;t possibly be the first mate to lockl his keys in the trunk, any ideas?
I havea 1997 sc300 5 speed

I have a 92, so we may have different security systems, but on my car the security system sort of resets once you disconnect, then reconnect the battery.
Also, on my 92, you can remove the rear seat (do a search for instructions on how to do so), exposing a circular panel that you can pop out. Depending upon where the key is, you may be able to snake your arm or a coat-hanger wire over the gas tank and past the divider panel to reach the key.
Finally, if you have a wiring diagram (I don't), you may be able to tap into the wires leading into the trunk along the driver's side rocker panels. Possibly jumping two wires will pop the release mechanism.
