Can't get my Subaru outback "trunk" to automatically close/open, and when I manually close it, it doesn't latch. I'm

before I contacted you, the gate wouldn't latch closed. After performing your steps, it's latched (but not fully closed, has a little wiggle to it) and now will not open, and the button seems unresponsive. All the buttons, the wine on the gate the one on the driver's side inside the car and the one on the key. Please advise

On key, I pressed unlock about 3 times, then at gate I pressed and held button for about 30 seconds no known change.

After performing your last step, no, there was no latching sound (which was made the earlier) no beeping from the car, the gate is still closed and not opening via button not manual movement

While sitting in the driver's seat, the dash say the lift gate is open, even though it is physically closer to being closed

car started with no issue

I'm not sure what exactly happened but it's fixed. I'll let you know to the best of my ability what happened and what not. So I was locking/unlocking everything, pressing and holding the gate release inside the car, the key and on the gate, just trying to get something, then I started the car and turned it off then went back to the gate and I heard the latch engage/disengage sound so I opened the gate as much as I could then pressed the gate close on the gate door inside(what I'd normally press after loading groceries) and it moved about a foot in the closed direction, then I pressed it on the the driver's side inside the car, it moved another foot, repeat until it closed. Then I tried opening it, it only opened halfway then when pressed again it closed completely. Last night while I was searching for answers I remember seeing stuff about the memory button so I pressed that a couple times, now it's all good

Thank you for your assistance
