997 Electrical - fuse layout
I copied the pamphlet in the drivers side compartment showing the fuse diagram and layout. Yes, the English section. Where would be the most useful place to post this? I looked around and could not find this online or in my manual so, for 2006 C4S, here it is if I can just find a way to upload the pdf...its almost 3Mb as a pdf.
Here are jpg pages of fuse layout. Hope it helps as I could not find this anywhere else.

Bump. Also, is this the same (or at least similar to) the layout for a 2005 C2 manual?

What year/model is your 911?
double check that you are following the owners manual on this one. for my 997.2, after connection up the +, then t he negative, I use the remote fob, hold down the frunk button for approx. 2 seconds (not the switch by the seat).
Hope it is that easy for you.

Probably not the fuse .
If you think it is , Have you checked Row A with a fuse checker ?
This is how I have opened the hatch with no power before :
1 - hook up external power/battery to + post at fuse box and neg to ground ( door post or per manual )
2 - be sure key is in and ON . It won't open if key is out and fob remote button isn't working .
You should see lights , radio , etc. working
3 - try drivers side door sill trunk release switch ( these switches break easily so be sure you use thumb & finger to be positive you have triggered the switch ) . Push it down into place then lift front while pushing down back of switch . Replace it if broken but vacuum it out if just sticky or feels jammed . Do Not force it .
4 - If switch won't open it
- try interior lock/unlock button on top center dash .. if it works your lock fuse is good .
Unlock it and
- check that your remote is working for lock functions ( linked ? battery good ? ) by trying to lock/unlock car with remote lock button
with doors open .
it should chirp on Lock ( Something is Open warning ) .
Get in , close doors , click LOCK on remote . If doors lock but you hear a " chirp " it means something is open , look for " trunk/ front hatch open " warning light on dash . If it is on then the hatch is popped but not all the way up ( which is barely an inch or so ) So see if you can lift it by hand an inch or so to get to manual hood release lever to left of center in front under hood when facing car from front . That lever can stick with cable all the way or lock itself can gunk up and stick so jiggle lever left and right to free up latch , then push it to full open and lift hood at same time .
As a last resort I have used the 9V battery plug-in device for the cigarette lighter socket . That is a 9V attached to a lighter plug for " emergency starts " , Walmart special or auto parts store . Bad idea for electrical systems to back feed them like this but it got me started or trunk open in emergencies .
If none of this works you will have to do the manual no-power front hood release procedure . That may be on Renn or at Pelican parts tech docs .
Best of luck .

Thanks for all of your suggestions.

This is how I have opened the hatch with no power before :
1 - hook up external power/battery to + post at fuse box and neg to ground ( door post or per manual )
Done
2 - be sure key is in and ON . It won't open if key is out and fob remote button isn't working .
I have three keys. I can see each.
You should see lights , radio , etc. working
This was the case at first, but now I get nothing. The only thing that gets powered is the key release.
3 - try drivers side door sill trunk release switch ( these switches break easily so be sure you use thumb & finger to be positive you have triggered the switch ) . Push it down into place then lift front while pushing down back of switch . Replace it if broken but vacuum it out if just sticky or feels jammed . Do Not force it .
Most have told me the door sill switch won't work. They say to use the FOB. I've done both but I have yet to try the fob with one key in the ignition.
4 - If switch won't open it
- try interior lock/unlock button on top center dash .. if it works your lock fuse is good .
I'll do that next. But, it's 17 deg here now.

Try plugging in a battery maintainer to the cigarette lighter or auxiliary power supply and leaving on for 24 -36 hours.
This should put enough power in the battery to open the trunk as long as the battery will take a charge.
This worked for me on a 997.

I think your battery has a major fault that's blocking attempts to electrically open the frunk. If it were me, I'd take off the left front wheel and start looking for the manual release wire. Once you get it open remove the battery and take it to an Interstate store for a thorough check.

If you can't borrow a jack go buy one. The lug bolts are 19mm save for the lock lug. Try contacting someone in local PCA chapter or an independent repair shop to source one. Here's someone else's Plan B:
