I believe you need a new motor.

Re: Hatchback lock and pull down

Do a search on my user name. Sorry, no time to post a page long list of what to check or ow to repair it. First thing to determine, which of the two styles of motor used in 91 do you have. Early 91 mocel year used a pull-down with a metal fram (where it attaches to the car body). Late 91 model year used a tan-colored plastic frame (where it attaches to the car body).
