This diagram should help: http://www.austinthirdgen.org/mkport...wn_release.jpg
You can start by checking that your parking brake is set (on manual cars) or the shifter is in Park or Neutral (on automatic cars).
Hope this helps.

Re: electric trunk switch not working, help please
I have the same issue. I got a 6speed swap with autometer gages. When I press the hatch button I have my brake light on the dash light up. Wondering if thats normal? I have got it to work in the past but now it doesnt

Also: when you apply the Parking Brake, does the dash BRAKE
light illuminate?

Re: Hatch Dispatch
Im having a similar issue. I have 2 wires that I think go to the hatch. I have a green and a blue. I hook them up and the switch does not work. I just did a T56 swap so do I need to modify the green wire as it doesnt go to the auto shifter... If I use a test light from a ground and touch the same terminal the blue wire is on the hatch works.
Thanks
