Checking the Connectors




Checking The Connectors







- Check the VGLA-control module connector and the connector for the lock unit in the tailgate for contact resistance and oxidation, Checking Wiring and Terminals - Permanent Faults

- Ignition on.

- Truck lid/tailgate open

Read status for the door switch in the tailgate/trunk lid.
The value should be LOW when the tailgate/trunk lid is open.
If the value is OK the cause of the fault was loose connections in the connectors.

Is the value LOW?

Yes - Test complete

No - Checking For an Open-Circuit
