Ambient Temperature Sensor Circuit Short to Ground

Test 1-2:

Test 3-4:

SYMPTOM
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE SENSOR CIRCUIT SHORT TO GROUND

WHEN MONITORED
Whenever the Power Liftgate Module is awake.

SET CONDITION
If the module senses a resistance below 1000 ohms on the Liftgate Temperature Sensor Signal circuit, this code will set. The normal range for the sensor is 1.2K to 382K ohms. At room temperature (68 degrees F) the resistance will be between 11.2 K and 13.5K ohms.

POSSIBLE CAUSES
- DTC present
- Liftgate temperature sensor signal circuit short to ground.
- Power liftgate module - temp sense short to ground
- Liftgate temperature sensor signal wire short to ground wire
- Liftgate temperature sensor
