Subject:      Electric Locks - Rear hatch will not open
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed

I have a Carat with electric locks. No battery power for the time being while work is being done on the van. BUT, I need to open the rear hatch and the lock will not release using the key. Up until yesterday, it always released. Today it will not. Unlike my manual locks in the my GL's, this lock requires the key be in the lock to press the button to unlock the hatch. The key turns, the button goes in when pressed, but the latch doesn't release.

Any suggestions??

Thanks,

John
