  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

The unlocking feature works with the keyfob, if I hit the lock button on keyfob the light turns red but the door never locks. I also cannot use the outside drivers door to lock either, it will only perform unlock.

I have a Bidirectional Scan Tool and it shows 0 issues with vehicle. When I start the ignition, the door panel inside locks the car just fine when I push the lock button.

Anyone know what could possibly be wrong?
 
I would try replacing the key fob battery. Sometimes the simple solutions work.:)
 
Only 1 keyfob. I don't think it's a keyfob issue. The trunk also doesn't pop open with the buttons inside the vehicle.

Something that's related to the trunk + door is preventing them from working.

Did you check the button in the ceiling of the glove box compartment?

Yes, glove department button is for trunk specifically, but I have pushed it in and depressed it, neither one makes an impact on anything.
