Loose wire by fuel filler tube/neck.

[chrsfrm]

Tried some more pics but to be honest they did not show up anything more than the others. It is a bit tight in teh filler area. When you see the wire in real life it still looks like a single electrical wire with a female connection. The only possible places it could connect would be on bare metal, on the tube clamp. Is there a static earth to the filler? Not sure why though as filler tube is plastic.

I'm stumped, as there's no ground shown in the EWDs anyplace near there.

I just looked at the EPC to see if it showed a harness that for some reason the EWDs lack, but it didn't. Here's the 04 diesel's fuel fill as shown by the EPC:

Yes, I had seen that diagram, no sign of the wire. I may just have a rogue wire sitting there. I'll put a voltmeter on it see if it shows anything, or also for continuity. Thanks for taking the time to help. Regards, Chris.

is it frozen? (in Nova Scotia, that can easily happen in winter)

if there is no tension whatsoever on the release, then it could be a broken cable, if there is tension, then it's probably just stuck.

Have somebody pull up on the release (or prop it up so it's fully extended) and then using a small flat head screwdriver try to pry the door open.
*** make sure you wrap the long part of the screwdriver in cloth or something soft so you don't destroy your paint and cover the end of it as well. don't pry too hard either***

hopefully it opens and you can either clean it, or replace it - be warned though it may not close again after opening it if it's a mechanical issue.
