Default A couple of problems:

First problem:
Hatchdoor will not open. Worked fine until I put the dash back together (long story but dash near column etc was apart), now it is not working at all and stuck down, i can't get it open because the top is off and stuck in the rear. I have checked hatch related fuses that are obvious but cannot find a full list.
I have tried to check my connections but do not have a meter at the moment.... Any common suggestions ??

It had been going in and out in the past on and off, once in a while not openning or being reliable...feels totally out now...


Second problem:
While putting the dash together, I noticed the individual who pulled the dash apart for me, did okay except for the center arm rest (with the storage)...inside the storage?? the fuel door release button.

The rocker still clicks, but it will not open the door, and yes i do have the e-brake up....

any common grounds or something right in the dash area i could have disturbed??

Solved!


Check minifuse #32 in the passenger footwell, it supplies the gas door and rear hatch switch.


:P Owned.
Problem? It's a 15amp...go figure, trip to autozone then the gas station! YAY!
