Rear hatch linkage problem

[Guest Jose Garcia]

Hi 88pathoffroad, my '94 pathy back door, not the side door, doesn't open with the key. I have to use the electrical switch. I removed the plastic panel and discovered that the little rod that moves the machanism to open either the glass window or the whole door is disconected from the thing which is turned by the key to open the door. I know there is missing something that holds the little rod and that other part I don't know what it is. I was wondering if the manual you have has information about this situation. I thank you for your willingness of helping.

No books needed...you're missing one of these lock linkage adapters. (yellow plastic bits attached to the linkage parts in this pic)

 

 

...look inside your hatch and I bet you'll find the missing one. If not, they're cheap at the dealership.
