2010 explorer

Does anybodyknow where the trunk wire is? on the 2010 explorer i know it says brown wire by the kick panel. but the two that i found are not it. thanks for the help

chances are it will be in the harness that comes from the rear of the vehicle.  Look for the bundle of wires under the door sill.

ok thanks, i guess i'm being lazy and trying to find it in the front.

It is in the front.  You should be able to find that bundle of wires under the drivers door sill.  Once you find it in that harness, you should be able to find it further up the wall.

yeah, thats where i found the two brown wires, one is 22 gage and the other one is like an 18 gage. thanks for the help anyways but i think am just going to leave it like that. It's not a customer is my wife so she'll be ok.

Since you've found two, one of which might be the one why not TEST.

How are you testing the brown wire (-). you are supposed to be testing it by pressing the button on the rear hatch not the factory remote. every time you hit the button on the hatch you will see a negative signal on one of those brown wires. If your explorer is anything like my 2002, if the doors are locked or I believe if the car is running that button on the hatch won't open the hatch. So, Instead I used the positive hatch release wire. I used a relay to change the negative output to a positive, this way my hatch will pop open when I want it to. The Positive hatch release wire is BROWN / Blue in your truck and you can test this wire using the factory remote key fob or the button on the hatch. Its located in the same area you are looking now.
