Just got the LIC PLATE LIGHT in the check display in the gauge cluster. Rear hatch Glass (only) release has not worked in about a month or so (on the same harness?). Got the test light out (after a new license plate bulb did not cure the problem, or so I thought...). Test light got a positive signal only when I moved the rear hatch up & down... Hmmmm. I knew it was inevitable. My car just turned 191K, so I knew it would be needed sooner or later. Everything else works on the rear hatch (rear wiper, rear washer, reverse lights, 1 license plate light). I cannot complain, I love this car

Question is, I know there are 2 rear hatch harnesses- a left & a right. Which side is needed (or should I do both while I'm in there?) I have already done the 3rd brake light (new) harness, lense assembly, etc about a year ago..

Didn't Scott H have a real nice write up on this?

TIA Guys-
