The back hatch will often not open if the internal mechanism or release has become damaged. Replacing the latch is the most effective and reliable fix.

What problems? The question isn't very informative.
To remove the rear hatch door panel in order to fix the lock on a Subaru Outback you will need a Phillips-head screwdriver, small flat screwdriver, trim pry tool, and tack puller. Using these items you need to remove the push clips and pry the trim from the hatch.
It is probably the hatch latch. Try taking some electrical tape and wraping it around the latch 2 or 3 times.
What's wrong with it? If it doesn't retract, then the retractors need to be replaced. But if it is cut or frayed, the belt needs to be replaced. If it doesn't latch, then part of the latch mechanism needs to be replaced or repaired.
I used a short bunge cord hooked on the metal bracket in back of the box to the front latch. Not the best fix - but it works (bertter than paying $90 for a new box).
Your clutch cable snapped. It should be an easy fix.
Can you be just a little more specific? Fix what? the latch mechanism, a hinge? Do you want to know how to take it off?
I have a 1998 Subaru Legacy Outback wagon and have the same problem. I climbed in the back and removed the back panel on the hatch door. Then I noticed the latch on the locking mechanism was getting stuck halfway. I wound up climbing into the back every time and moving out of the stuck position every time I wanted to open the hatch door. About a month ago a friend who borrowed my car noticed that if you pressed the unlock button on the front passenger side door it would unlock. I was very surprised when I found this out, but it worked. I'm not sure if that's a fluke with just my car, but it might work for you. Otherwise you could try climbing into the back like my first method. Good luck!
To fix hesitation on a 1998 Subaru Forester, measure the lengths and take a ground from battery to the intake manifold on the driver's side. Then to the passenger side manifold and onto the other strut tower. Finally, ground from battery negative to the fire wall.?æ?æ?æ
While pulling on the handle as if to open the hatch, take a screw driver and pop the locking mechanism/latch to the open position. It should work no problem.
