Congrats A8Silver !!
I too have been following this thread waiting on your results! Now what would be better if you could maybe take some pictures of the location of junction box and the pin and how you jumped it and post so if someone does this down the road it will make life easier for the next person!! If you can't get pictures at least describe where everything is. Great Going!!

Oh Boy !!! Do I have pics......tons of them !!!! That's how I read the pin numbers and confirmed the wire color - my eyes aren't as good as they used to be.
I will post a document this weekend with the pics and procedure. Least I can do for the help I got from the forum.
You can't wipe the smile off my face today.

[QUOTE=a8silver;2386481]Was replacing the battery on my 2014 V8S F-type - Vert, and had to stop midway. The stupid stick hit me, and I shut the trunk. The cables are disconnected, and I cannot use the front jump points. I have been looking around, and found threads on how techs have been able to open the trunk by applying voltage to the trunk solenoid from the Central Junction Box ( passenger footwell) . Unfortunately, no detailed instructions.
I have looked and gone thru the V6S service manual (see below) to trace the wiring but no luck. Has anyone opened the truck by powering the trunk with CJB - any procedures/pointers. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Had same/similar problem when battery went flat in VA with jump leads in well in trunk of my coupe. Luckily found a small enough person (better half...!) with coat hanger. Lifted off trunk cover from between seats - volunteer (sort of!!!) gets as far as they can with hanger and opens 'T' pull....

I've never owned a Jag that didnt have a key, at present have 2009 XF. Use your key to open the boot if you have one.

Check out post #6 by Unhingd (the savior, as always, haha).. you should be able to power the trunk with this method.

You are very much mistaken. The emergency key in your fob is to open the doors, not the trunk. There's no keyhole under the licence plate.
