Rear hatch inoperable

I recently purchased a 1987 Chevrolet Camaro that has an issue with the rear hatch being inoperable. I located the ACC 15 AMP fuse slot and found it to be empty. When I attempted to insert a fuse in the slot it sparked and blew the fuse. I need help or guidance in locating the source of the problem? Thank you all in advance. James

See Post 4 & 5 in the thread below. It has the schematics for the Hatch Pull Down so you can trace your fault...
