Seemingly the security module in the trunk is getting power only when the accessories are powered. So my thought is that the security module does not have power to it with the ignition OFF. It could be another part that should be powered up all the time but I cannot think what that could be.
Look for water in and around the security module, water is an enemy of these modules and has caused all kinds of troubles
