5. Grab the latch assembly and hook the key cylinder link rod on the key cylinder (Figure 1).

6. Position the latch and install three new latch retaining bolts. Torque to 10 Nm (90 in.lbs.).

7. Connect the power latch electrical connector (Figure 1).

8. Install the lower liftgate trim panel.

9. Connect the battery negative cable.

10. Using an appropriate scan tool, check and erase any power liftgate control module diagnostic trouble codes related to the power latch.

11. Verify power liftgate system and power cinch / release latch operation. Cycle the power liftgate through one complete open and close cycle, this will allow the power liftgate control module to relearn its cycle with the new components.

12. Verify power liftgate manual operation. Using liftgate key rotate the lock cylinder to verify door operation. Pull door open using exterior liftgate handle / switch.
