A remotely operable lock for a vehicle compartment includes a rotary latch; a detent moveable from a locked position to an unlocked position for preventing and allowing turning of the rotary latch; an electrical actuator mechanically coupled to the detent to selectively move the detent from the locked position to the unlocked position; and a key operated member arranged to selectively interfere with movement of the detent to thereby hold the detent in the locked position or the unlocked position irrespective of operation of the electrical actuator.
