First the 3rd brake light quit, then the glass window, then the license plate lights...
Now the rear hatch is completely inoperative. Key will not rotate even after taking a swim in "lock-ez".
Is there a way to open the rear hatch from inside the vehicle?
Not much of a wagon if the back won't open...
HELP
Thanks,

sorry for the repost
...100 into tight, slippy, 2 right, don't cut, opens... 200, keep left over crest...
One post mentions fuse 44 under the seat, is it good? Are all the fuses good?
Here's a semi destructive post:

If you can get the whole hatch open, you can check/fix wires to get the glass open and remove the trim. Good luck. I've had my trim off since I bought mine a couple years ago. I have to completely rebuild the harness because my patch fix isn't the greatest.
The only ways the hatch normally opens are: 1. an electric motor operated by a switch above the licenseplate, and 2. with the key. However, you may be able to operate the latch manually by removing the interior panel. See here for some details of how to do that.
