Hatch Motor fuse, Where?

I've tried to find the fuse used for the hatch pull down motor. Can't seem to find it. Any help out there?

For Camaro the hatch release fuse is the #3 fuse (top row, third column from the left). For Firebird the hatch release switch is a separate in-line fuse adjacent to the fuse block. For Camaro or Firebird the solenoid release fuse is the #11 position (third row down, third column from the left). Pull off the hatch surround trim panel and check with a multi-meter or test light that you have +12v at the red with white stripe wire that is plugged into the blue wire.

GOT IT!!! Your were absolutely correct. Top row, third column. Once I pulled it, I could see it was blown. Put a new one in a listened to the hatch motor pull it down. This is especially rewarding as I replaced the motor and knew it worked (having jumped the leads before installing it). Thanks so much for your help. You saved me a ton of time.
