The hatch lock is not opening anymore. Possibly because something inside is broken. Any tips?

From the top of the receiver plate (that you can see in the pics) the lip of
the retainer (that holds the white locking tab) is approx 8mm down. When locked
the white tab is below this but only the top ~ 10mm of the tab is above the
rotation pivot. So I'd say you need a hole in the support centered approx
10-12mm below the top of the receiver plate. Use a rod/screwdriver blade to see
if you can depress the release tab with this (sharp tap is best to avoid damage
- won't take much).
If this doesn't work - it may be you need to drill the receiver too - comments
here may confirm - Or you can drill a bigger hole in the support to evaluate
what is behind there. If you need to drill this go very slow to avoid release
tab damage.
