Power Liftgate (PLG) Control Module Inspection: Notes

  1. Disconnect the negative battery terminal. (Refer to NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION .)
  2. Remove the following parts:
    1. Trunk board (Refer to TRUNK BOARD REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
    2. Trunk covering (Refer to TRUNK COVERING REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
    3. Trunk side pocket (Refer to TRUNK SIDE POCKET REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
    4. Trunk end trim (Refer to TRUNK END TRIM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
    5. Rear scuff plate (Refer to REAR SCUFF PLATE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
    6. Third-row seat cushion (Refer to THIRD-ROW SEAT CUSHION REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
    7. Third-row seat (Refer to THIRD-ROW SEAT BACK COMPONENT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
    8. Trunk side trim (Refer to TRUNK SIDE TRIM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
  3. Connect the negative battery terminal. (Refer to NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION .)
  4. Verify that the voltages of each of the terminals are as indicated in the terminal voltage table (reference).
    • If the voltage is not as specified in the terminal voltage table (reference), inspect the parts under Inspection item(s) and related wiring harnesses.
      • If the system does not work normally even though the inspection items are normal, replace the power liftgate (PLG) control module.
