    - Firstly, the car did not come with the buttons (and the frame). Any ideas where to get the buttons + the frame?
    - Pressing the luggage/trunk "button" works, but the fuel/gas "button" does not
    - When pressed, no sound from near the gas cap (i.e. I don't think it activated the actuator)

    This is crazy you asked this question today. Different switch, same exact problem and I believe those buttons are the same on the board. My mode selector has 2 inop switches, and I'm currently working to source the buttons. The switch itself is like $700, the buttons that need replacing are about $.10 each.
    The buttons that work operate properly when checked with a multimeter, the ones that don't still stay in the megaohm range even when activated.

    I refuse to pay $1k to repair a 10cnt part. You'll probably have to source a second hand switch frame. The board you see screws to the back of it. To test yours, you can use a jump wire to verify it's the button thats faulty on the board.

    When you say "buttons" do you mean the small electronic button itself? (the small white thing)
    When you say switch is $700, switch meaning the whole circuit board? or the exterior switch frame? or the electronic switch on the circuit board?

    Going to try to find my multimeter. Do you have clear step by step guide on how to test it? Thanks!
