Let me know if you get a working solution. I have the exact same problem. Only way to LOCK the trunk is to flip the switch inside the trunk lid. That's ludicrous.

Yes this is absurd. I just found out about it because someone broke into my car. I'm livid. How can auto makers be this stupid? When I lock the car, I want it locked. The idea of granting public access to your trunk is the dumbest damn thing I've ever experienced with a car.

I have the same exact problem and also found out when somebody broke into my car it turns out when my car is unlocked the trunk is locked but when I lock my car the trunk is unlocked and can be open by simply pulling the handle what a piece of crap design whoever designed that should be fired
