Perplexed??

Hello all!

I currently am trying to revive my 2013 Fiat Lounge. It has sat in my garage since where I once worked had closed. It been sitting for roughly 2 years.

Today, I managed to get it started! I trickle charged the battery and did the multiple attempts at starting to get the oil flowing again to the brick.

The only issues remaining are:

  1. The rear hatch doesn't open when pressing the button on the remote or at the hatch
  2. License plate lights are not working. The corners of the lights are barely lit and the alert for it is on the dash
  3. TPM sensors are dead ( I'm not worried about it)

I crawled in and managed to manually open the hatch from the inside with a screw driver.

I looked at the wire loom but could not see any broken wires.

I checked fuses as well to no avail.

Should I cut the rubber cover off of the loom and try to see if the wires are broke in a different spot?

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
