Default WTF? rear hatch won't open

It's a 95. I already opened it twice today, then I go to open it, nothing. It doesn't click. The keychain button wont open it nor with the button on the dash. Iy doesn't even make that "click" sund when you push the button. It's like the lock is open, yet the hatch glass is stuck. I tried reefing on it, nothing. Any ideas?

I've had that happen with mine as well. It happens when the bottom part isn't closed properly. Try pushing on it from the outside to re-latch it properly and then try the button. It always works for me.

Same thing happened to me last week if toy open the whole door take off the upolstery you will see the motor directly below the window. There is a plastic arm off of the motor, it is probably broken. Mine was I just driled a hole in it and used .025 saftey wire and wraped it, or you can buy a new motor.
