TRUNK WONT OPEN FROM KEY FOB

What do i need to check to allow the trunk to open when i press the trunk release on the KEY FOB?

the trunk release from the console still works.
but the KEY FOB button is dead.
is there a receiver i need to check from inside the car?

Is the car new to you? Make sure the led on the fob flashes. For the trunk it's push and hold to open.

got it to work!
yeah wasnt used to the long hold on the key fob to release the trunk.
on my other cars its usually a double tap.

now to figure out why the key fob range is so short.

That's unfortunately just how it is on these.
