This should help you over ride motor/ open flap .

Pull back trim/look in cubbyhole space on fuel filler side of the car. Locate motor and manually activate lock plunger.

and

once you have the trim off you can see the motor - look for the rod thats poking into the fuel flap and just move it with a pair of thin nosed pliers - if you then disconnect the plug it won't re lock when you lock the car -
