Rear latch still stuck!!?

Hi guys.New to this forum but am definitely looking forward to being a part of!
Just purchased an 07 runner.Rear latch started giving me problem a week in.
I have switched the actuator,unplugged the battery “cycled the windows” unlocked and locked the door 3 times,checked fuses and she still won’t budge?!?
Wat am I doing wrong??Does the door have to be closed when locking and unlocking?is there an order in which the windows have to be cycled?!?!
I’ve reach out to a buddy at Toyota a few times but he still hasn’t thrown me a bone..any tips or tricks are GLADLY appreciated.Thanks.

 

So you can't open your rear hatch door at all?

 

No.I followed all steps and it still won’t go..

 

I found out i cant unlock my rear hatch with the key if the battery is diconnected. I found that weird.
Sorry not really related to the topic.
