I can hear the electronic actuator when my neighbour helped me press the button, but it's not enough to release the latch. Battery is good and I've been driving the car almost every other day for over a month, so I know it's not the battery.

Checked fuse D7 and swapped with other fuses - no go. Rear trunk opens no problems. Any leads on how to tackle this one? Thankfully it's just oranges, some bottles of water, avocado, bread, and whatnot. Thanks in advance.
Have your buddy push down then release on the trunk lid while you are pushing the button.
If you have success , simply oil the latch.They get sticky, then tmake the actuator go out.
