Default Fuel door release not working

I went to fill up today, and my fuel door release is not opening the fuel
door. Is there another way of getting the door open with out going to the
dealership?

I can hear the release working when i pull up on the switch, however the door
just will not open!

Thanks

If you've got an acess panel in the trunk of your car (Tire Jack & swing
handle might be there) you can open it up, and manually relase the door.
We had the same problem with out 90 Corolla Wagon. Just Opened the Acess
panel, and pulled the lever where the cable attatches.
