Default EG Hatch Latch Problem...

I have a problem with my Hatch's hatch window.

first off i'll lock the hatch window and it won't open, but my Trunk open light (err... HATCH open light ) stays on all the time. When i hit bumps and such it bangs and if i hit a bump hard enough or a pothole the hatch will actually open. It won't open up all the way but i'll pop open as if i had opened it. It's messed up, i tried swapping the locking mechanism with suprdave's and it still gave me the same problem. I can't figure out what's wrong with the ******* thing. Anyone have the same problem, or know of a solution?

Thanks in advance.

Oh, so the bulb in the cluster is what's making the hatch pop open??

I'm not looking to do things half assed, where's the damn hammer icon??
