Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the A23C liftgate latch assembly.
  2. Test for less than 30 Ω between the low reference circuit terminal 2 and ground.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K39 liftgate control module.
  3. Ignition ON, verify the scan tool LGM Latch Pawl Sw parameter is Inactive.
    • If not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal 5 for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K39 liftgate control module.
  4. Install a 3 A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 5 and the low reference circuit terminal 2. Verify the scan tool LGM Latch Pawl Sw parameter is Active.
    • If not the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K39 liftgate control module.
  5. Verify the scan tool LGM Latch Ratchet Sw. parameter is Inactive.
    • If not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal 6 for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K39 liftgate control module.
  6. Install a 3 A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 6 and low reference circuit terminal 2. Verify the scan tool LGM Latch Ratchet Sw. parameter is Active.
    • If not the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K39 liftgate control module.
  7. Verify the scan tool LGM Latch Sector Sw. parameter is Inactive.
    • If not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal 4 for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K39 liftgate control module.
  8. Install a 3 A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 4 and low reference circuit terminal 2. Verify the scan tool LGM Latch Sector Sw. parameter is Active.
    • If not the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K39 liftgate control module.
  9. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the A23C liftgate latch assembly.
