I have a 1993 Subaru impreza hatchback 4d with the 1.8 liter engine. I opened the back hatch and put my bike in it this morning and this afternoon I attempted to take it out but the handle failed to open the hatch. I used the power locks which sounds like it worked but again the door failed to open. I used the key manually and the same result. I do not understand how a door that has worked thousands of times can all the sudden stop operating. Any advice on how to open the back hatch again would be appreciated. I use the back hatch every day so this answer is of great importance.

the last video is for wrong engine of 5 engine
his (OP) is 1.8L boxers and has a Distributor. 4 cyl
2nd video is wrong, no distributor. has coil pack
2nd video is 2005 and worthless.
1st video, is wrong too, is OBD2 car, 1993 is not.
1st video does not distributor
most youtubers never ever tell year nor which of 5 engines are there,and watchers pull hair out endlessly. (wasted time and efforts)
this car goes back to 1992 , vast changes,by year
1996 (first obd2 )1.8L has 4 lug DIS coil pack
that too has special connections, ask for help
boxer is h4 engine, H= horizontal.
all answers USA
if not here engine spark can be totally different world wide.
ours had a distributor 1.8L USA. EJ18 engine.
1992 to 2023 car,but wiki says
1998 (the same year the 1.8-liter engine was dropped
so is only a 6 year run.(1.8l)
31 year run, all engines. other 5 (set)

That's not the problem , Check all electrical connections carefully

Pretty much any "EJ" transmission will fit any "EJ" engine, the only problems are whether the clutch is a pull or push type release bearing? That will also make a difference how the clutch slave cylinder mounts up. If it isn't a turbo model trans, it will not take the HP that the engine puts out for very long. The Impreza STI manual trans will bolt up, but there will be some exhaust fitment issues where the down pipe bracket connects to the trans.

some time is the oxygen sensor .make sure put on computer first

Worn valves.

Hi the engine managment system in your 93 impreza will not run a 1998 engine. If your using the complete motor with inlet manifold and turbo you will need the get the correct engine harnes and ECM.

Hello, your coolant temp sensor is mounted on the cylinder head coolant crossover pipe. If your standing at the front of your car with the hood open, if your looking at the engine the sensor is to the left of the throttle body under the intake manifold. I think it takes the open end of a 19mm wrench to unscrew it. There are 2 sensors back there and it's the larger of the 2.

if the engine temp seems normal on the dash gauge then it may be a clogged heater core.have the sysyem flushed-it worked for me recentlythe other options may be a heater door not closing..some are vacuum activated a flush is a good place to start..good luck
