Yep, I should have looked before I replied. I put mine in close to 9 years ago and I guess I remembered poorly. Sorry. This time, however, I did look. The pushbutton gets power from fuse No. 1, runs a gray lead all the way to the trunk and the motor. The motor also picks up power from the trunk light. It grounds via brown wire to the trunk lid. So, no relay. If you look at the motor housing there is more than just a motor in there, judging by the size of it. Probably the initial button push (power from fuse 1) starts the motor which also turns a conductive cam or something inside the motor housing. Once the button is released the motor takes current from the trunk light (green wire) as long as the cam or disc is still conducting. Once it spins to a blank spot, the curcuit is broken and the motor stops, hopefully after spinning long enough to reset the latch. If your motor spins only as long as you hold down the button, perhaps you are not supplying power into the motor through the green and the gray leads. The other option is that I am completely wrong...again. Sorry if I led you in the wrong direction initially.
