Power Trunk / Liftgate Hazard Sensor: Testing and Inspection
To verify power liftgate system and pinch sensor operation.
1. Cycle the power liftgate through two complete open and close cycles, during each of the final close cycles, with the liftgate in mid-travel, depress
each of the pinch sensors to verify the power liftgate control module detects an obstruction and returns to the open position. If OK, pinch sensors
and module are OK at this time. If NOT OK, go to Step 2
2. Remove the liftgate trim panel to access the inoperable pinch sensor's electrical connector. Using an ohmmeter, check for continuity on the two
wires leading from the pinch sensor. While depressing the pinch sensor, continuity should be 300 ohms max. While NOT depressing the pinch
sensor, continuity should be 10,000 ohms min. If OK, pinch sensor is OK at this time. If NOT OK, replace the pinch sensor.
