Security Hood Switch Test
1. Open the hood then remove the bulkhead cover See: Access Cover/Service and Repair.
2. Disconnect the 2P connector from the security hood switch.
3. Check for continuity between the terminals.
-
There should be continuity between terminals No. 1 and No. 2 when the hood is opened (latch released).
-
There should be no continuity between terminals No. 1 and No. 2 when the hood is closed (latch pushed down).
4. If the continuity is not as specified, the switch is faulty; replace the hood latch assembly See: Doors, Hood and Trunk/Hood/Hood Latch/Service
