If its the fuse you would not have power windows, power door locks, interior lights or sunroof operating either as they are on the same circuit. I just went through all this and thought it was the convenience control module but it was just the fuse. If all of these items still work but just the trunk won't open it is likely the release mechanism, check and see if water has been leaking from the third brake light onto the trunk release mechanism and killed it. Do you hear the sounds the trunk usually makes when it is releasing?

I would love someone to tell me where this fuse is because my car has all the same symptoms mentioned above.

I guess it should also be stated that the fuse box referenced is located behind a plastic door on the dash inside the driver side door (left hand drive, don't know if it reverses for right hand drive).
So open your driver door, and look at the corner of the dash hidden by the door. There is a little opening to wedge a screwdriver into and pop open the fuse box. |

Thanks for the chart but I'm way beyond that panel. All those fuses check out fine. I understand that there is a power window fuse under the dash in the relay panel. It's supposed to have a red connector but I don't see that one. I have the following symptoms, windows don't work, same with sunroof, mirrors and all interior lights. The rear lid opens when you turn on the lights so I disconnected the motor back there as it was quickly become a pain in the rear to get out and push the lid down every time I turned on the lights. It really sucks to drive around in Florida and not be able to roll the window or sunroof down. I just want to make sure I am heading in the right direction with this and would love to figure out where these fuses are as well as how to get my windows and stuff working again.

Sounds like maybe the comfort control module.
