- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the rear compartment lid release/close switch.
- Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal D and ground.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal and the B+ circuit fuse is open, test the signal circuit terminal A for a short to ground.
- Verify that a test lamp does not illuminate between the signal circuit terminal A and ground.
- If the test lamp illuminates, test the signal circuit terminal A for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the FTC module.
- Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal D and signal circuit terminal A.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the signal circuit terminal A for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the FTC module.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the rear compartment lid release/close switch.
