I know that as these older E55 and E63 age, the wiring loom that mounts in the trunk hinge getting brittle, and often breaks. Causing the wires to sever. And the single from the door panel never reaches the motor that opens and closes the trunk. That is what happen to my 07 E63.
But I really don't think that is the issue with your car.
