Default Trunk not working on 2013 GS 350

My trunk is not opening with the key pad or with the button inside the car. It's not even making a noise when I push either button. Does anyone has any idea what could be wrong?

Valet lock in your glove box?

Funny coincidence, I ran into the same silly problem. My friend poked around in the gloves compartment and accidentally switched that vallet lock. Later that night, I went bonkers trying to figure out why the trunk would not open Plus I actually needed to fetch my stuff from it :-)
SO I ended up opening the pass through and employ a flashlight and a long broom stick to pull on the yellow emergency lock release thingy. ! it was fun though.
Btw, JDW379, you could have opened the truck using your mechanical key from outside the trunk..

Only after I consulted the manual, I learned about these things.
So, manual is our Bible! :-)
