Does anyone know where the manual switch for the fuel door is located? I searched the rear compartment area that the manual said the the switch is located at and I could not find it.



If anyone knows where the switch is located at please post a picture.

Don't have camera handy, but it is easy to find. When you open the plastic cover per picture above, you will see in the upper left corner piece of metal ( triangle shape). It is right behind the metal piece at the bottom section. There are couple pipes going next to it (thin and wide). Hard to miss. I hope this helps!

Thanks Luke, I was able to push my hand back behind the body work and after a couple of minutes I felt a lever and pulled on it. I also followed a wire that led to the switch for the fuel door. The manual is not clear on some of the features and the pictures are very misleading. There might be a language issue and an assumption that designers know where everything should be.

Here is the door to the jack compartment.



Behind this area is where you can find the lever



This is a shot of the lever that is concealed. You will never see this lever unless you take a picture of it with a small camera. You will always need feel behind the bodywork and pull on the lever.

I hope I never have to use it...

Thank you so much, I finally found it. Not sure why, but my fuel door won't open after I got service from the dealer. Not like the most spring issues online, my case seems no power supplied to the fuel door opener.
Please let me know if you have solved the issue.
Thanks

Thank you so much, fortunately, the problem was the fuse.

Believe it or not, the dealer's technician forgot to put the fuel door fuse back...
