Test E: The Power Liftgate Chime Is Inoperative

PINPOINT TEST E: THE POWER LIFTGATE CHIME IS INOPERATIVE

Normal Operation
The power liftgate chime is controlled by the liftgate/trunk module (LTM). To activate the chime, the LTM supplies a high frequency voltage output on circuit CPR56 (VT/BN) and ground on circuit RPR56 (GY/VT).

- DTC B236A Chime Output Circuit Open - If chime is not active (ON) and voltage readings are 0.4 VDC less than the chime output feedback voltage or less than 3.5 V, the chime will not be activated and the liftgate/trunk module (LTM) will set this DTC.
- DTC B2903 Chime Output Circuit Short to Battery - If chime output circuit fault is detected for the duration of active chime, the LTM will set this DTC.
- DTC B2940 Chime Output Circuit Short to Ground - If chime output circuit fault is detected for the duration of active chime, the LTM will set this DTC.

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- Chime
