Sign In I recently inherited a 95 Astro van, and while cleaning the interior and fixing a few things, I found the rear hatch won't open. It won't open by the switch in the front, or by using the key. No sound is produced when I do either. Any help? Tom Greenleaf Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Apr 30, 2005, 3:24 PM Post #2 of 3 (3783 views) Re: 95 Astro van rear hatch problem. Sign In If the key can turn - try pushing and pulling on the door. When you (hopefully ) get it open spray WD-40 the daylights into all the latching mechanisms. You can test them without closing the door/hatch. If need be when open remove panels so you can really target them with spray. Some power locks when the motor fails prevents a key from working. If all fails - I suggest an auto body repair shop for help with this as they are good at this stuff and you dont need any damage to get it working. Hope this works, mikeP Anonymous Poster portermAsbcglobal.net Dec 17, 2007, 3:19 PM Post #3 of 3 (3293 views) Re: 95 Astro van rear hatch problem.
