The rear hatch lock on a 2002 Rendezvous may fail to open due to several factors, including a faulty lock actuator, a broken or disconnected linkage, or issues with the wiring or electrical connections.

If the rear door hatch lock switch is engaged, you typically need to disengage it first to open the hatch. This can usually be done by pressing the switch again or using the vehicle's key fob to unlock the doors. If the lock mechanism is malfunctioning, refer to the vehicle's manual for specific instructions or consider seeking assistance from a professional. Always ensure the vehicle is in park and that safety precautions are taken before attempting to open the hatch.
Try using the key... (the lock should be behind the license plate)
To replace the rear hatch supports on a 2000 Oldsmobile Bravada, first, ensure the hatch is securely propped open. Use a socket wrench to remove the bolts securing the old supports at both ends. Carefully detach the old supports and install the new ones by aligning them with the mounting brackets and tightening the bolts. Finally, test the hatch operation to ensure it opens and closes smoothly.
I have to pull a fuse to get mine to work and then replace it. It only works once, so every time I want in the hatch, I have to open the hood, open the fuse box, remove and then replace the fuse. I can then open the hatch once.
The lock is removed with the open lock button in the driver's door or with the open locks button at the key. Then the door is opened by actuating the lever just above the license plate. Hope this helps!
