Default Hatch won't shut! Help please

So I opened my hatch today and later went back to shut it and it won't shut. When I press my button to open the hatch it doesn't make a noise anymore. I took the peice off and it looks like there is a little actuator on ther is not working. on here that locks it and lets it release. I can't find what this thing is called nor do I know how to fix it. Anybody got an idea?
