Yeah mine does the same, it would work every once in a while until it finally just quit all together. That motor has stripped gears i believe, and it retails for like $50-60 something. Im cheap so I just got used to using the key.

Mine does the same thing. It started a couple of weeks ago. I just use the key now. Does anyone have a spare?

Now that I think about it, I actually had this problem on my 2000 ITR. For some reason the latch/locking mechinism got stuck. Sometimes the latch would get jammed after I opened the trunk and I couldnt get it closed again. Back then I was lazy and jsut took it to the dealer. 45 minutes and $70 it was fixed.
