Default Disabling Valet Mode in A4 2013

Need some help disabling the valet mode in an A4 2013. The valet switch seems to be stuck in the on position because of which my trunk is locked.

I could always take it to the dealership but want to know if anyone has has this happen to them.

ok the smart key is sensed by the car.. so if you activated the valet with say " key 1"
and then you pick up " key 2" and go back to the car it will not com out of valet mode. make sure you are using the same key!!and if it does come down to it...
unplug the valet button, cycle the key and then plug it back in see if it does it. if not,
you need a valet button....

Thanks EthanB5 for the reply.... i had to take it to the dealership and it was a warranty issue. Waiting on the new valet switch coz they had to break the switch to unlock the trunk.
