Normal Operation
When any door, liftgate, or liftgate glass is opened, the ajar switch opens the circuit to the smart junction box (SJB). The SJB monitors the ajar circuits, and based on the ajar status, the SJB will supply ground to the interior lamps on circuit 401 (PK).

Possible Causes
- Circuit 401 (PK) short to ground
- Circuit 570 (BK/WH) open
- Circuit 700 (WH/PK) open or short to voltage
- Circuit 701 (LB/BK) open or short to voltage
- Circuit 760 (PK/LB) open or short to voltage
- Circuit 867 (DB) open or short to voltage
- Circuit 1312 (LG/BK) open or short to voltage
- Circuit 1742 (VT/LG) open or short to voltage
- Circuit 1758 (WH/PK) open or short to voltage
- Door ajar switch (integral to door latch)
- SJB
