Description

Trunk lid latch switch circuit malfunction

Detection condition
•  BCM detects short to ground in trunk lid latch switch circuit with the trunk closed (trunk lid latch switch off).
Fail-safe
Not applicable
Possible cause
•  Trunk lid latch switch connector or terminal malfunction
•  Trunk lid latch switch malfunction
•  BCM connector or terminal malfunction
•  Short to ground in wiring harness between trunk lid latch switch terminal A and BCM terminal 2AC
•  BCM malfunction

Diagnostic Procedure

Step

Inspection

Action

1
VERIFY BCM DTCs AGAIN
•  Clear the DTC for the BCM using the M-MDS.
•  Open/close the trunk.
•  Retrieve the BCM DTCs using the M-MDS.
•  Is the same Pending DTC present?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Go to Step 7.
2
INSPECT TRUNK LID LATCH SWITCH CONNECTOR CONDITION
•  Switch the ignition off.
•  Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
•  Disconnect the trunk lid latch switch connector.
•  Inspect the connector engagement and connection condition and inspect the terminals for damage, deformation, corrosion, or disconnection.
•  Is the connector normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Repair or replace the connector, then go to Step 6.
3
INSPECT TRUNK LID LATCH SWITCH
•  Inspect the trunk lid latch switch.
•  Is the trunk lid latch switch normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Replace the trunk lid latch and release actuator, then go to Step 6.
4
INSPECT BCM CONNECTOR CONDITION
•  Disconnect the BCM connector.
•  Inspect the connector engagement and connection condition and inspect the terminals for damage, deformation, corrosion, or disconnection.
•  Is the connector normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Repair or replace the connector, then go to Step 6.
5
INSPECT TRUNK LID LATCH SWITCH CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND
•  Verify that the trunk lid latch switch and BCM connectors are disconnected.
•  Inspect for continuity between trunk lid latch switch terminal A (wiring harness-side) and body ground.
•  Is there continuity?
Yes
Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between trunk lid latch switch terminal A and BCM terminal 2AC.
If there is a common connector:
•  Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for a short to ground.
•  Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.
If there is no common connector:
•  Repair or replace the wiring harness which has a short to ground.
Go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
6
VERIFY THAT REPAIRS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED
•  Always reconnect all disconnected connectors.
•  Connect the negative battery terminal.
•  Clear the DTC for the BCM using the M-MDS.
•  Open/close the trunk.
•  Retrieve the BCM DTCs using the M-MDS.
•  Is the same Pending DTC present?
Yes
Repeat the inspection from Step 1.
•  If the malfunction recurs, replace the BCM.
Go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
7
VERIFY IF OTHER DTCs DISPLAYED
•  Are any other DTCs displayed?
Yes
Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the applicable DTC troubleshooting.
No
DTC troubleshooting completed.
