Well the door I don't know much about but I had a problem with the hatch release. I did the fix for 99 and NEWER F-bodys found on install university. Works fine now and the fix was simple.

It is in the Install Documents listed under the Miscellaneous category, named Rear Hatch Release Fix 2 (1999 and Newer)

Check the electrical connection to actuator and make sure it's working. You might need a new one.

If you need an actuator, Gm Parts Center.net can get them to you cheaper than the dealership if you want new OEM parts.
