Component Testing

Liftgate Release Actuator 

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the liftgate release actuator.
2. Install a 20 amp fused jumper wire between the control terminal 1 and 12 volts. Install a jumper wire between the ground terminal 3 and ground. Verify the release actuator activates.
   • If the actuator does not perform as specified, replace the liftgate release actuator.

Liftgate Switch 

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the liftgate switch.
2. Test for infinite resistance between the signal terminal A and the ground terminal C with the switch in the open position.
   • If not the specified value, replace the liftgate switch.
3. Test for less than 2 ohms between the signal terminal A and the ground terminal C with the switch in the closed position.
   • If greater than the specified range, replace the liftgate switch.
