Test G: The Luggage Compartment Lid Release Is Inoperative/Does Not Operate Correctly

PINPOINT TEST G: THE LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT LID RELEASE IS INOPERATIVE/DOES NOT OPERATE CORRECTLY

Normal Operation
When the SJB receives an open command from the remote keyless entry (RKE) transmitter, the SJB grounds the luggage compartment lid release relay control circuit 26 (WH/VT). The luggage compartment lid release relay is located in the bussed electrical center (BEC) and receives voltage from the BEC fuse 57 (20A). When the control circuit is grounded, the relay closes and supplies voltage to circuit 1092 (PK/OG) which energizes the luggage compartment lid release solenoid, releasing the luggage compartment lid. The luggage compartment lid release solenoid is grounded through circuit 1205 (BK).

The SJB will not release the luggage compartment lid, if the vehicle is traveling faster than 5 km/h (3 mph).

NOTE: The SJB releases the luggage compartment lid regardless of vehicle speed when a short to ground is detected on the luggage compartment lid disarm switch circuit 1350 (WH/PK).

- DTC B1551 (Latch/Decklid Release Circuit Failure) - is a continuous or on-demand DTC that sets if the SJB detects an open or short to ground on the trunk release output circuit 26 (WH/VT).

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Fuse
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- RKE transmitter
- Luggage compartment lid release relay
- Luggage compartment lid release solenoid (part of the luggage compartment lid latch)
- Vehicle speed signal
- BEC
- SJB
