Default Hatch Release??

Suddenly my "rear hatch release" slide button located inside the edge of
drivers side door doesn't activate/open the rear hatch on my '94.
Could this be a "fuse" problem? Is anyone familiar with this occurrence?

Does the release in the glove box or the right hand door work?

If so, I'll take a wild guess and say the switch is bad or has become disconnected behind the door panel.

I'm having a similar problem with my 93: the switch on the door won't open the hatch but the on in the center console will. Also, the interior lights don't go on when I open the driver side door and the PKE won't lock the doors unless I open then close the passenger door.
