sup yall...i got a 99 2dr LS and my hatch wont open...any suggestions...and yes i already tried unlocking the doors...holla back

 

my hatch likes to be a pain too...it won't open when it's unlocked...it's a new problem too...but it's not a biggie...the trick i came across was turning the key clockwise (to open) until it makes a pop/click noise and then i quickly use the lever to open it with the other hand...oh yeah...it's for a 98 ls, but maybe you can use my trick

 

sounds good i think imma go try it...cause my trick already died out..cause i was tuiring it clock wise and opening it at the same time and it worked for a hot second but today it faild...any others?

 

nope...i don't have any other tricks...i'm just going to keep using that one until it quits working and i have to cave and get it fixed...lol...i'm so cheap.
by the way...good luck to you.

i have to do that too.

 

is it a common problem or something with integras?

 

Happens to mine, the turn the key and push the latch trick works sometimes. Anyone know what part is need to fix this and how much?

 

The toggle switch that releases the latch will tend to stick. You have to move the switch over with your finger to its original position. Otherwise the hatch will not open.

 

Just a side note...my hatch will not open without the key and that prevented the rest of my stereo from being stolen last weekend. I have the rear hatch cover and a rear strut bar which the theives could not wedge the sub or other equipment between so they left it. Too bad they got away with the amp on the back seat

 

that's ******* cool that they didn't get the rest...sorry about the amp thought, but at least the defect helped
