emergency help! No door locks, No shut off
My vacuum system stopped working after I was on a rough road. My door locks wont work and my car won't shut off. I Need to get in my trunk to get my cell phone, but the trunk is stuck in the locked position and I don't have the trunk key. Can anyone help me out?

Check your vacuum lines. The big fat main line goes from the pump to the brake master cylinder with the vacuum controls for doors, climate control, and shut off branching off that main line. Probably broke a connection somewhere. Tape it up to get things going. Do you still have power brakes?
Don't see how you can get into the trunk without a trunk key.

Pull up the drivers carpet. Find the green and red striped lines going away from the firewall. Suck on the green one, and the doors and trunk should unlock. If you suck on the red one, they should lock. May sound gross, but it will unlock them.

ditto on that, if I remember right on a sedan, the right rear door, fuel flap and trunk are all on the same feed line. find the yellow/green one leading toward the back from the right side of the car and start honing your 'golf ball though a garden hose' skills.
