Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition/Vehicle & All vehicle systems - Off
- Open the liftgate.
- Disconnect the electrical connector: B70 Liftgate Close Switch
- Verify a test lamp turns On between the test points: Control circuit terminal 2 & Low Reference circuit terminal 1
- If the test lamp does not turn On
- Ignition/Vehicle - Off & Remove - Test lamp
- Disconnect the electrical connector: X4 @ K194 Rear Gate Module
- Test for infinite resistance between the test points: Control circuit terminal 2 @ Component harness & Ground
- If less than infinite resistance - Repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- Go to next step: If infinite resistance
- Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Control circuit terminal 2 @ Component harness & Terminal 8 X4 @ Control module harness
- If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 ohms - Replace the component: K194 Rear Gate Module
- Go to next step: If the test lamp turns On
- Ignition/Vehicle - Off
- Disconnect the electrical connector: X4 @ K194 Rear Gate Module
- Ignition - On/Vehicle - In Service Mode
- Verify a test lamp does not turn On between the test points: Control circuit terminal 2 & Low Reference circuit terminal 1
- If the test lamp turns On
- Ignition/Vehicle - Off & Remove - Test lamp
- Ignition - On/Vehicle - In Service Mode
- Test for less than 1 V between the test points: Control circuit terminal 2 @ B70 Liftgate Close Switch & Ground
- If 1 V or greater - Repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
- If less than 1 V - Replace the component: B70 Liftgate Close Switch
- Go to next step: If the test lamp does not turn On
- Replace the component: K194 Rear Gate Module
