Lexus RX330 rear hatch open indicator light and buzzer stays on

2004 Rx330. I have closed the rear hatch both manually and by the rear hatch button. It seems to lock but the red indicator light on the dash says it is still open. When I put car in gear the warning beep starts to sound and won't go off. It started this on a very cold day (about 10 degrees F) but not sure if that is related.

Rx330 won't open rear gate

Inside the glove box on the left side there is an on/off switch, which m,ay have been bumped off thereby shutting off the power controls to the hatch. Check that first. Then press the unlock button on your key twice, then test all 3 power hatch buttons to test them, one each on lower left dash by the gas cap door release, one on fob and the one at the hatch. If they still do not work it is possible your door may need to be 'initialized" by your dealer due to power failure. I have seen this with seats and windows but never with the rear door....

My driver door on Lexus RX330 won't open

first thing you should do is try to have a shop open the door with a beak in kit. if they can't get the door open this way the door trim panel will have to be pryed off. it is difficult to do with the door closed but it can be done. the trim pane will probably be ruined during removal. once the trim panel is removed the door latch can be released from the inside.

how are3 the gas cylinders...are they supporting the weight of the hatch?
if there is a leak the cylinder cannot support the weight of the hatch itself causing it to sit back down and lock the hatch again.
