Won't the valet key open the trunk
I have a 99 GS300 and there is a lock on the left side, right above your knee that you can puch in. This will make it so the truck can not be opened, except with a key. You also need the main key to unlock the button, the valet key will not work in this lock. I hope this is helpful.
Do you have the "valet key" (black FOB key with the auto-lock & 'panic' buttons are)? We had this problem with our '98 E320 and it turned out the battery in the valet key needed replacing.
The valet key operates the ignition switch and the drivers door lock. It is cut so as to block any access to your glove compartment or the trunk. Made speciifically for giving to the valet parking attendants when your car is being parked by a valet service.

When have your car parked by a valet you just hit that button and lock your glove box and they will not be able to open the trunk or gas filler door....Remember to take your door key with you. They can use the remote to get in the car.
Take the spare/valet key out of it's holder on the fob. In the slot, under where the head of the valet key is stored, is a grey slide lock. Using the valet key or a similar tool, slide the gray lock under the body of the rest of the fob. This will unlock and push up the top of the fob. Pull out the internals and replace the battery.

Take your title to a Harley dealer. They can cut you a key or get you a key code that a locksmith can use to make you your key. You could also remove the ignition lock or secondary lock (helmet or gas tank or seat lock), take it to a locksmith and they will make you a key. They will ask for proof of ownership.
Pressing valet mode locks the glovebox and trunk so that only your own 'proper' key can open them. The valet key cannot open those; it can only operate the engine and the doorlocks. Actually, you have to manually lock the glove box, but other than that the answer is correct. Just make sure you give the valet the green key, not the black key.
