Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition/Vehicle & All vehicle systems - Off
  2. Disconnect the electrical connector: S46B Liftgate Unlatch Switch
  3. Verify a test lamp turns On between the test points: Low Reference circuit terminal 2 & B+
    • If the test lamp does not turn On 
    1. Disconnect the electrical connector: K39 Liftgate Control Module
    2. Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Low Reference circuit terminal 2 @ Component harness & Terminal 16 X1 @ Control module harness
      • If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 ohms - Replace the component: K39 Liftgate Control Module
    • Go to next step: If the test lamp turns On 
  4. Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
  5. Verify the scan tool parameter: Liftgate Handle Switch = Inactive
    • If not the specified state 
    1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
    2. Disconnect the electrical connector: K39 Liftgate Control Module
    3. Test for infinite resistance between the test points: Signal circuit terminal 1 @ Component harness & Ground
      • If less than infinite resistance - Repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance - Replace the component: K39 Liftgate Control Module
    • Go to next step: If the specified state 
  6. Connect a 3 A fused jumper wire between the test points: Signal circuit terminal 1 & Low Reference circuit terminal 2
  7. Verify the scan tool parameter: Liftgate Handle Switch = Active
    • If not the specified state 
    1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off & Remove - Jumper wire(s)
    2. Disconnect the electrical connector: K39 Liftgate Control Module
    3. Ignition - On / Vehicle - In Service Mode
    4. Test for less than 1 V between the test points: Signal circuit terminal 1 @ Component harness & Ground
      • If 1 V or greater - Repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • Go to next step: If less than 1 V
    5. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
    6. Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Signal circuit terminal 1 @ Component harness & Terminal 14 X1 @ Control module harness
      • If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 ohms - Replace the component: K39 Liftgate Control Module
    • Go to next step: If the specified state 
  8. Test or replace the component: S46B Liftgate Unlatch Switch
