Help....Can someone try this ?

(i can't get to the garage without going outside, or I'd try it now).

Yeah, that's the only way I ever opened it, it seemed so easy... until I bumped the button the other day.
I know that sounds a little strange, but I never looked at the remote...

I will take you word for it; but it is rather strange ! A safety feature of some kind ? Doesn't make much sense.

I guess, keep you from accidently popping the trunk while in motion? cause that happens so often....
haha, donno, but thats what Ive found. not sure about details, if acc is on, will it work? what if its running but you use another FOB, Id imagine in that case it wouldnt care and still wouldnt work.
but as long as the car is running, that FOB wont open the trunk.

I also noticed it doesn't work w/the factory remote......
.....however you can open the hatch with the car on because it works with my aftermarket remote.
