Default C7 trunk won’t close

My 2019 Grand Sport had low battery issues and locked me out of car, got key fob key out to open trunk. I have since replaced vehicle battery and both FOB batteries, and trunk won’t close!!
It has the auto close option and can hold it down and get it to latch, but it releases again in about 5 seconds.
I noticed this issue identified a few years back on a 2019 z06 - exact same issue, exactly. However, never found the fix or diagnosis???

Reset the car by leaving off the negative terminal for 10/15 minutes. Then try it again. Hope this resets the module.

^ Worth a shot. Otherwise, maybe have a dealer investigate.

Don't disconnect the battery if you need emissions anytime soon as all of your emissions ready states get reset.
