My 2009 RDX hatch won't open. No clicking sound at the hatch, no remote open, nothing. Fuse appears good too. I cannot find any internal handle or cable to open it from the inside. I even called an Acura dealer and they were about as useful as the "g" in lasagna! Any ideas on how to get this thing open?

Thank you in advance!

There should be small rectangular cover on the inside of tailgate in the middle bottom, right next to grab handle. Pull that cover off with a flat head screwdriver, then put the screwdriver in the slot and push in and then right and push the tailgate out to open. Check your owners manual the instructions are under Tailgate section.

Not exactly the same on a 2009 but you got me in the right direction. I was able to open the hatch. Now how to remove the inner door skin to replace the actuator and which actuator to buy LOL

That's odd - the 2009 manual has the exact same instructions as the 2010. Word for word, picture for picture.
