Recommended Posts

For some unknow reason my rear hatch is jammed shut.....it will not open....

 

The latch unit releases but something in the mechinism is still not working. I took off the rear panal of the door and got to the mechinism and it looks like everything is working properly, but still no unlocking. I really dont know what to do. Only thing i can think of is cutting it out and i dont want to do that with out knoing what is going to happen if I do...any help is very welcome.

I agree.

 

Or spray a touch of oil in there, that completely fixed the hatch on my 4runner.

 

Or try to flex the rear suspension then open the back (hopefully this will not be the right solution because if it is your frame might be a little out of whack).

push, unlatch pull.. all in one motion.

 

I've fixed several of them this way..
