Check the MPX-B fuse, if it's good then disconnect your battery and put it back in

Mine started doing the opposite - will open from the dropdown panel button but not the remote. And yes I've tried the glovebox valet switch

fresh battery in the remote fob?

I think that the remote release using the fob is a personalized setting that can be configured in a few different ways (double press on remote, press and hold, or disable). Has it ever worked with the fob and just recently stopped working.
