WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Suzuki XL7. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Liftgate Release Actuator
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the liftgate release actuator.
- 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
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the liftgate switch.
- 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.
- 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.
