Hello my 2005 jeep liberty crd the rear window opens with the key fob but not the rear door hatch handle anymore. Any ideas where to start looking as to why. I asked this question a while back but never got to fixing the problem.

I was able to remove the pull handle on the door. One of the wires corroded off the contact point so I clipped/ cleaned the end and soldered it back in place. Took about an hour and solved the issue.Yea the window will unlatch with the key fob so I guess the electrical should be ok but you say there is a linkage from the handle to the latch motor
Yes, that isbhow it appears to work. Open the door and remove the interior plastic panel. I took the entire thing off instead of the little cut out. Remove a couple of bolts (or nuts...it has been a while) from the interior of the door to permit the handle to rock outward. On the back you can see the connector. Not a lot of slack in the wires.So the plastic handle has no linkage, but a switch witch contacts to the electrical motor to open the glass latch.
Being the keyfob works you say I need to remove the plastic handle from the hatch to locate this switch
