Use a 12vdc cigarette lighter adapter or connect battery to 12vdc to cigarette lighter wires, that will give u power to open trunk

My cigarette light was not working. I need a visual explanation, what is a cigarette adapter and connect a battery to cigarette wires explain further I am not clear

Connect 12volt battery to the 2 wires that feed the cigarette lighter. That will feedback voltage to the trunk electrical system

Lower rear seat and, using a wire hanger, hook on to the emergency trunk release and pull to open the trunk lid. Or have a small child crawl in and do the same. Don't forget to take the child out of the trunk.
