Are you able to open the trunk at all?
If so then it's most likely the motion you are doing.
The trunk needs to not be in Valet Lock mode.
Key within 3 feet of the trunk
just a quick forward and back motion with your toe just under the rear valence.
Most common issue is people try to double kick.
They kick and instead of waiting for it for a half second they instantly kick again and it stops the operation.
Then low and behold I get a call. lol
How do I know if the trunk is in valet mode? Is that in addition to the car just being locked?

Also I tried passing my foot left to right which I guess is wrong. I then tried kicking my foot forward then back out and neither worked.

Also the trunk opens using the fob or button in the drivers door

Thanks for your reply
