How does this remote release work? There's nothing visible to me. Is it electric or mechanical? I'm thinking electric on the lid latch unit because I can't see anything mechanical on the fixed part ("hasp?").

If you've got a lever on the floor, it's cable operated. If you've got a switch on the door, it's electric with a solenoid attached to the latch.
It's a lever on the floor. Are there any typical failure modes -- places where the cable breaks, etc?
Thanks.

I've actually never seen this cable fail on a Hyundai. Most cables break near either end. You'll want to pull up the lever and check the latch to make sure the cable is attached. It's also possible there's a problem with the latch or lever.
