Trunk Open! Warning....

....But the trunk is closed.

Started happening two days ago... happens when I take off from a stop. Warning keeps coming up on the dash. See pic below.

Sensor must be losing contact... anyone experience this before?

If it's anything like to hood sensor the mounting clips break. I fixed mine with a zip tie. Look for the sensor and see if it's moving around.

I just took the whole assembly apart.
There are a few round 'teeth' that move around in there and set a plastic piece in place.

This plastic piece pushes up against a small little green valve. This is what seems to be loose.....

Doesn't seem there is any way to tighten it up. I'll just get a new part.
