Trunk Sleeping in 2004 GTO??? I'm installing an aftermarket alarm in a 2004 GTO. Everything works fine, however I cannot get trunk release to work. It works for the first 5 seconds or so after the ignition is switched off, however, it will not operate after that. I'm sure everyone has heard of the Ford's GEM module falling asleep, but I've never encountered it in GM. (Damn Aussie Cars). If anyone has encountered this and solved the problem, please respond.
Yet another reason why the F-Body should not have been replaced.

It maybe a security lock out feature. Sometimes in my car the trunk won't release after the car has been parked for awhile. I think it just keeps anyone from accessing the car throught the trunk using the remote switch from inside.(Say if the pried the window down a little or something.) If it is that you should be able to adjust it through the program of the security on your car.
