Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition/Vehicle & All vehicle systems - Off
  2. Open the liftgate.
  3. Disconnect the electrical connector: B70 Liftgate Close Switch
  4. 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 
    1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off & Remove - Test lamp
    2. Disconnect the electrical connector: X4 @ K194 Rear Gate Module
    3. 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
    4. 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 
  5. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
  6. Disconnect the electrical connector: X4 @ K194 Rear Gate Module
  7. Ignition - On/Vehicle - In Service Mode
  8. 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 
    1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off & Remove - Test lamp
    2. Ignition - On/Vehicle - In Service Mode
    3. 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 
  9. Replace the component: K194 Rear Gate Module
