Fuse and/or relay for rear hatch actuator?

Does anyone know where the fuse or relay is for the hatch actuator that unlocks the hatch? I'm stuck using the pull cord until further notice :-/

That is correct, it only unlocks the doors, not the hatch. When I press the button, no power is being delivered to the actuator. I used a light tester and it never lit up. I'm hoping there is a fuse or something for it?

Fuse F37 (up to 9/2005) or fuse F23 (from 9/2005). There is no separate relay. The actuator is powered directly from the BCM computer. The actuator itself also might have failed.

Josh, didn't see this before I posted on your other similar thread.

+1 to rkw. Don't rule out the actuator but if you have no power going to it when handle is depressed and you're sure your microswitch on the handle is functioning properly and also receiving power.

Resurrecting an old thread here. I am not getting power to the actuator button on the rear hatch. I pulled the back panel off last night as the wiper motor stopped working and I have the wiper going but the hatch button stopped working and no longer has 12 volts going to it.

It appears that all the fuses are good.
