Trunk hatch release
My trunk hatch release button works from the button inside the centre glove box, but not on the doors. I've tested the switches and also tried shorting out the plugs inside the door and nothing releases. Where abouts do I need to trace the circuit back to, to see why the door buttons don't release the hatch?

First, do the interior lights come on when you open the doors? If not, the courtesy light switches could be the problem. If they do come on, ground the brown wire into the door switches and see if that pops the hatch release.

If the car thinks the door is closed, the door switch for the rear hatch will not operate.

Obviously the power to the door switches is only available when the timer is working
Faulty courtesy light timer
