2003 SAN - Hatch Release not working

[mnwakerider]

Went out for a ride last night and found that I couldn't release the rear engine compartments from the release button. I tried all of them, but no luck. I couldn't hear the relay firing to trigger the release. Is there an inline fuse or something that could have been tripped that I should check? I know one of my buttons at the rear wasn't working prior, but now nothing is working.
TIA

From my understanding those buttons go out often. Try replacing one and see if it works. http://www.nautiqueparts.com/switchf...atch02-03.aspx

Thanks for the recommendation. I checked the power at the buttons and they are dead. Any ideas why I wold loose power at the buttons?

Check the connections on the back of the buttons. Some of the wiring was made pretty tight and the fittings occasionally slip off and cause the button to die. I extended the wire and the problems went away. This was my problem/solution, maybe it is the same thing that is causing you problems.

I put the multimeter on the female connections that HO to the button and did not have any current...

So I talked to the guys at white lake and we came up with some trouble shooting. I made some test jumper leads and bypassed the relay and the solenoid still works, so I ordered a couple of new relays and that should do the trick. Fingers crossed.
