Is there a release pin or something at the top of the panel that you can see that would allow you to pull the top of the panel off a little to get inside and release the hatch lock?

Rear Hatch Won't Open |

I've got an 08 PT with the same problem. I took the back panel off and can manually move the linkage at the coil to open the rear hatch. How do I troubleshoot this? It's either the little switch under the handle or the coil itself down by the lock. I suspect it's the handle switch, but not sure... The prices are the dealer are pretty outragios, 154.00 for the handle swich and 185.00 for the coil lock assembly. They want another $145. to install.

If your remote doesn't trigger the lock, I'd say it's the power lock assembly. My handle doesn't work on my 2006, but I have the key lock to get it open...this was removed in 2008. However, when unlocking the hatch by button or power locks has no effect. I bypassed my handle with a push button & had no effect...the next step is to replace the lock assembly itself...but these are hard to find for G2 models (2006-2010).

Hello Lion,
Unfortunately in the last year my wife has managed to loose both remotes. I have a plain key with the chip in it. There are remotes at zPep Boys which are supposed to work on all Chrysler product, I might try one of those. If the hatch doesn't unlock using the lock button in the front door, it sounds like it might be the lock and coil, do I have that right? Is there a fuse for it? Thanks, Matt

I have the same problem. Just purchased a 2009 and the touch pad no longer responds to open the liftgate. This car has no key cylinder on the liftgate to manually open it. We also have a 2001 with a mechanical liftgate latch handle.
Is there a procedure to remove the inside panel to access the lock mechanism to manually open the door? I do not see any places to access the mounting hardware and don't want to damage the inside panel since it is in like new condition (car has only 47K miles on it). On a side note, can I replace the touch pad liftgate release with the older mechanical version by replacing the entire handle and "chrome wings". I prefer the mechanical release over the electronic touch pad. Thanks! ![]() Z 2001 PT Inferno Red 2009 PT Stone White |
