Circuit/System Testing

    NOTE:

    It may take up to 2 min for all vehicle systems to power down before an accurate ground or low reference circuit continuity test can be performed.

  1. Ignition/Vehicle & All vehicle systems - Off
  2. Disconnect the electrical connector: A23C Liftgate Latch Assembly

    3. Test for infinite resistance between the test points: Signal circuit terminal 2 @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 
  9. Connect a 3 A fused jumper wire between the test points: Signal circuit terminal 3 & Low Reference terminal 6
