Default Hatch problem

Its not a big deal for me, but it is there and supposed to work, the button under the rear fascia will not open the hatch, i did the search, and removed the switch and shined it up like new, to still no avail, button on the dash, and key fob work, so it is not the fuse, i tried a continuity tester on the switch with zero results,only other thing i could think of, and i tried everything not to, peeled back some of the insulation on the wires, hooked up my test light and pushed the button to see if there was current there, nothing. i am sure it must be simple, any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks Al

I hope you're aware that button's not supposed to work unless you've got a valid fob near the button. Otherwise, you must do it with a key.
