I have an 05 V8 that I bought used (VERY USED), and I'm in the process of troubleshooting and fixing a ton of issues. One issue that has continued to bug me is a non-functioning rear hatch. None of the switches has any affect on the hatch (door, keyfob, micro switch above the license plate). The only way I can open it is with the emergency pull cord from the inside. When I close it, I do hear the motor that locks the door tight, so I know that is working. My question is, bad micro switch or convenience module?
Just to note, the passenger windows all work fine. Heated seats all work. Gas hatch release does not work (but it looks like it was pried open, so I don't put much stock in that to begin with). Are there other things controlled by the module that I can cross-check to rule out the module? Does the little micro switch in the door have that much control that it will prevent any method of opening the door?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
And yes, I have posted numerous threads on this vehicle. Please don't judge me, I'm working through a lot of problems right now.
Thanks
