How do you know if the rear hatch latch motor on a Pontiac Firebird has gone bad when key is stuck in lock and wont turn?

A stuck key in the lock and inability to turn it does not indicate a problem with the rear hatch latch motor. It is more likely an issue with the lock cylinder itself, such as a worn-out tumbler or a jammed mechanism.
