pull the trunk liner down by removing clips and check the wiring.

You have fuses on your drivers side kick panel and also under the hood. But I'd check at the kick panel first. Volt meter is your friend. Good luck.

All you need is a test light. You don't have to undo the carpet. Just pop out the lens and stick a test light probe into each connector (2). You can clip the ground cable on the trunk latch pin right where your balls are.
