Not sure on the relay, but have you checked out the release itself. Those go bad quite often. Sorry I couldn't be much help.

Is it inside the console, a small button under the lid of the console. I had a friend with one once, and I think that is where it was. I remember him lifting the lid to open the hatch.

well the thing is I odnt hear the relay click when i press the switch, so...
i was told that it only works with car ign off, but it doesnt work in off or on or acc position or anything, so,,
fuses are all fine, i done been through the panel already,

bouncy, i think you mean switch, the switch is the one in between the window switchs on the top side of the console, im talking about the relay box deal that activates power from the switch to relay power to the release unit in the hatch

unless i misunderstood you.
what year was his maro ?

ar least i found out that the dome lamp system fuse was toast however, so now i have them and courtesy lamps too, now.
and i also have lamp for the tranny gear selector deal and for heater controls panel too finally

. bulbs were missing lol.. wierd,.

thanks !

No relay was on my '82. just a hot lead to the solenoid at the hatch. used the same solenoid to release my monte carlo trunk too, used no relay, set so was hot always, so can open trunk with no key in ignition.
