Please help.

I have two KEY FOBS.
One of them works fine (however, I lost it this weekend)
The second key fob pops my trunk every time I hit "lock" or "unlock" on my keyfob.
Basically, any button I press, my trunk pops open.

IF, i avoid using the remote on the keyfob and use the actual key to unlock my driver door, the alarm will go off until I start the ignition.

What's causing this ? How can I fix it?

thanks

If one worked correctly and the other doesn't you have a defective key fob
 
replacements on eBay and amazon and very easy to program watching youtube videos
 
The remote may have water damage on the circuit board causing this problem. Cleaning the board may solve the issue, but you have to break open the housing to get to it. Replacement housing are available on Amazon and AliExpress. Here is a video that shows how to break it apart if you need it. I have replaced the housing on mine without any issues, just be careful.
