Pinpoint Test K: The Luggage Compartment/Liftgate IA Is Inoperative
NOTE:
Use the correct probe adapter(s) when making measurements. Failure to use the correct probe adapter(s) may damage the connector.
- K1 CHECK THE RKE OPERATION
- Press the unlock button on an IA key.
- Does the driver door unlock?
- Yes : GO to K2.
- No : Go to Pinpoint Test G .
- K2 CHECK THE LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT LID/LIFTGATE LATCH RELEASE OPERATION
- Press the luggage compartment lid/liftgate release switch located on the luggage compartment lid/liftgate.
- Does the luggage compartment lid/liftgate latch release?
- Yes : GO to K3.
- No : Go to Pinpoint Test E .
- K3 CHECK THE IA KEY
- Place the IA key on the center console and start the engine.
- Does the engine start?
- Yes : GO to K4.
- No : REFER to ANTI-THEFT - PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM (PATS) to DIAGNOSE the IA key.
- K4 CHECK THE RFA MODULE TRUNK/LIFTGATE RELEASE SWITCH (TR_UNLK_H_SW) PID
- K5 CHECK THE LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT LID/LIFTGATE RELEASE SWITCH INPUT CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
- Ignition OFF.
- Disconnect: RFA Module C3503B.
- Disconnect: BCM C2280G.
- Measure the resistance between the BCM C2280G-20, circuit CPL10 (GN/WH), harness side and the RFA module C3503B-9, circuit CPL10 (GN/WH), harness side.
- Is the resistance less than 5 ohms?
- Yes : GO to K9.
- No : REPAIR circuit CPL10 (GN/WH) for an open. TEST the system for normal operation.
- K6 CHECK THE LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT ANTENNA CIRCUITS FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE
- Ignition OFF.
- Disconnect: RFA Module C3503E.
- Disconnect: Luggage Compartment/Liftgate IA Antenna C4082.
- Disconnect: Smart Keyless Entry Ignition Relay.
- Connect a fused jumper wire between the smart keyless entry ignition relay pin 3, circuit SBP01 (RD), Central Junction Box (CJB) face side and the smart keyless entry ignition relay pin 5, circuit CDC32 (BN/YE), CJB face side.
- Measure the voltage between the luggage compartment/liftgate IA antenna C4082-1, circuit VPK07 (VT), harness side and ground, and between the luggage compartment/liftgate IA antenna C4082-2, circuit RPK07 (GN/OG), harness side and ground.
- Is any voltage present?
- Yes : REMOVE the jumper wire. INSTALL the smart keyless entry ignition relay. REPAIR the circuit in question for a short to voltage. CLEAR the DTCs. REPEAT the self-test.
- No : REMOVE the jumper wire. INSTALL the smart keyless entry ignition relay. GO to K7.
- K7 CHECK THE LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT/LIFTGATE ANTENNA CIRCUITS FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
- Measure the resistance between the luggage compartment/liftgate IA antenna C4082-1, circuit VPK07 (VT), harness side and ground, and between the luggage compartment/liftgate IA antenna C4082-2, circuit RPK07 (GN/OG), harness side and ground.
- Is the resistance greater than 10, 000 ohms?
- Yes : GO to K8.
- No : REPAIR the circuit in question for a short to ground. CLEAR the DTCs. REPEAT the self-test.
- K8 CHECK THE ANTENNA CIRCUITS FOR AN OPEN
- Measure the resistance between the luggage compartment/liftgate antenna, harness side and the RFA module, harness side as follows:
RFA Module Connector-Pin Luggage Compartment/Liftgate IA Antenna Connector-Pin Circuit C3503E-16 C4082-1 VPK07 (VT) C3503E-7 C4082-2 RPK07 (GN/OG) - Are the resistances less than 5 ohms?
- Yes : INSTALL a new luggage compartment/liftgate IA antenna. REFER to Intelligent Access (IA) Antenna . CLEAR the DTCs. REPEAT the self-test. If the concern is still present, GO to K9.
- No : REPAIR the circuit in question for an open. CLEAR the DTCs. REPEAT the self-test.
Fig 5: Measuring Resistance Between Luggage Compartment/Liftgate Antenna, Harness Side And RFA Module, Harness SideCourtesy of FORD MOTOR CO.
- Measure the resistance between the luggage compartment/liftgate antenna, harness side and the RFA module, harness side as follows:
- K9 CHECK FOR CORRECT RFA MODULE OPERATION
- Disconnect all the RFA module connectors.
- Check for:
- corrosion
- damaged pins
- pushed-out pins
- Connect all the RFA module connectors and make sure they seat correctly.
- Operate the system and verify the concern is still present.
- Is the concern still present?
- Yes : INSTALL a new RFA module. REFER to MULTIFUNCTION ELECTRONIC MODULES . TEST the system for normal operation.
- No : The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern may have been caused by a loose or corroded connector.
