Default Trunk won't open 07 430?!

Ok I'm pretty sure it might be something I did. About a week ago I had the trunk open & as I went to close it I tagged the touch pad(while it was still open) & didn't think anything of it. Couple days later I went to open the trunk with the fob in my pocket & get no response from the touch pad, tried the button inside, nothing & also tried the fob button, nothing! I opened it with the key manually & it closes & pulls shut fine, just won't open with the touch pad, inside button or fob.

It was working fine prior to me pushing the touch pad while trunk was open!? I did check the fuse under the dash & it was fine. Any input?

You could of also bumped the trunk locker button, (between trunk and gas cap button) if you have that.

Had a customer that came in today, we were changing her tires..She thought her trunk was broken. I hit the valet button and she was so amazed!
