Component Testing

Liftgate Unlatch Switch

  1. Vehicle OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S46B Liftgate Unlatch Switch.
  2. Test for infinite resistance between the signal terminal 2 and the ground terminal 4 with the switch in the open position.
    • If less than infinite resistance 

      Replace the S46B Liftgate Unlatch Switch.

    • If infinite resistance 
  3. Test for infinite resistance between the signal terminal 3 and the ground terminal 4 with the switch in the open position.
    • If less than infinite resistance 

      Replace the S46B Liftgate Unlatch Switch.

    • If infinite resistance 
  4. Test for less than 2 Ω between the signal terminal 2 and the ground terminal 4 with the switch in the Lock position.
    • If 2 Ω or greater 

      Replace the S46B Liftgate Unlatch Switch.

    • If less than 2 Ω 
  5. Test for less than 2 Ω between the signal terminal 3 and the ground terminal 4 with the switch in the Unlock position.
    • If 2 Ω or greater 

      Replace the S46B Liftgate Unlatch Switch.

    • If less than 2 Ω 
  6. All OK

Liftgate Lock Actuator

  1. Vehicle OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the M14B Door Lock Actuator-Liftgate.
  2. Install a 25 A fused jumper wire between one of the control terminals and 12 V. Momentarily install a jumper wire between the other control terminal and ground. Reverse the jumper wires at least two times, the M14B Door Lock Actuator-Liftgate should perform the LOCK and UNLOCK function.
    • If the actuator does not perform the LOCK and UNLOCK function 

      Replace the M14B Door Lock Actuator-Liftgate.

    • If the actuator performs the LOCK and UNLOCK function 
  3. All OK
