Read this thread, POst 73 in particular. Once you get the trunk open, do the lock mod described so you never to thru this again. You can disable the ELECTRIC lock, the pneumatic lock will still work - the electric lock is only for the 30 seconds the top is moving up or down, you don't need it.

The top finished cycling up; it errors when commanded down because the partition in the trunk is not properly aligned. Both sides of the leading edge have to be positioned on the hooks that hold it in place, and there are sensors there to ensure correct placement.

However, the bag in the trunk pushed the partition out of place when the trunk was slammed... which wouldn't be a problem, except that the trunk is stuck.
