STEP 1. Check liftgate switch connector F-12 for loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Q: Is liftgate switch connector F-12 in good condition?
YES: Go to Step 2.
NO: Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Check that the input signal of liftgate switch is normal.
STEP 2.Check the liftgate switch.
Remove the liftgate switch. Then check the continuity between the switch terminals and the switch body.
Q: Is the liftgate switch in good condition?
YES: Go to Step 3.
NO: Replace the liftgate switch. Check that the input signal of liftgate switch is normal.
STEP 3. Measure at the lower metal part of the liftgate switch in order to check the ground circuit to the liftgate switch.
NOTE: Check that the liftgate switch is grounded to the vehicle body by means of its mounting screw.
Remove the cap, and measure the resistance value between the lower metal part and ground.
-
The resistance should equal 2 ohms or less.
Q: Is the measured resistance 2 ohms or less?
YES: Go to Step 4.
NO: Check the fit of the switch, and repair if necessary. Check that the input signal of liftgate switch is normal.
STEP 4. Check ETACS-ECU connector C-313 for loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Q: Is ETACS-ECU connector C-313 in good condition?
YES: Go to Step 5.
NO: Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Check that the input signal of liftgate switch is normal.
STEP 5. Check the wiring harness between liftgate switch connector F-12 (terminal 1) and ETACS-ECU connector C-313 (terminal 5).
Check the input lines for open circuit and short circuit.
NOTE: Also check intermediate connector D-12 for loose, corroded, or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector. If intermediate
connector D-12 is damaged, repair or replace the connector.
Q: Is the wiring harness between liftgate switch connector F-12 (terminal 1) and ETACS-ECU connector C-313 (terminal 5) in good condition?
YES: Replace the ETACS-ECU. Check that the input signal of liftgate switch is normal.
NO: The wiring harness may be damaged or the connector(s) may have loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the
