Couple of rear hatchg questions...
1: How the heck do you remove the cable release from the rear lock
cylinder? I bought a set and need to replace it but am afraid I'm going to
break it. The service manual doesn't help at all.
2: For some reason my pull down motor is stuck in the down position. When
I hit the release button it won't slide back up. Never had this problem
before. Is there a way to make it go back to the up position?
Thanks

In this video at 4:15 he said he used a screwdriver and pried the plastic part off. I'd use some caution when doing this so that it doesn't break.

Re: Couple of rear hatchg questions...
That plastic piece has two metal pins that do not look removable and I'm afraid to break it by prying..?
