PINPOINT TEST G: THE POWER LIFTGATE OFF MESSAGE IS INOPERATIVE


G1-G2:






Normal Operation
The power liftgate on/off status is sent from the power liftgate module to the instrument cluster over the medium speed controller area network (MS-CAN) communication bus lines. When the RESET button is pressed, the instrument cluster sends a query to the power liftgate module, requesting a system status. The power liftgate module responds to the instrument cluster with the status of the system, either on or off. If the return status message is missing or corrupted, the instrument cluster does not display the brackets around either the ON or OFF selection.

Possible Causes
- Communication network
- Power liftgate system
