Cargo Door Ajar Indicator Inoperative

Step	Action	Yes	No
Schematic Reference: Body Rear End Schematics
1	Did you perform the Body Rear End Diagnostic System Check?	Go to Step 2	Go to Diagnostic System Check - Body Rear End
2	Turn the ignition ON. Open the cargo doors, liftgate or liftglass. Is the cargo door ajar message displayed?	Go to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections in Wiring Systems	Go to Step 3
3	Install a scan tool. Observe the Cargo Door Agar Switch parameter in the BCM Inputs data list. Does the scan tool display the switch parameter as Open?	Go to Step 4	Go to Step 12
4	Disconnect the body harness to liftgate harness inline connector C901, or the body harness to cargo door contact plate connectors. Using a fused jumper wire ground the liftgate ajar switch signal circuit in the body harness connector. Does the scan tool display the switch as Open?	Go to Step 9	Go to Step 5
5	Test the liftgate ajar switch signal and ground circuits in the liftgate or cargo door harnesses for an open or high resistance. Refer to Circuit Testing , and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems. Did you find and correct the condition?	Go to Step 8	Go to Step 6
6	Test the liftgate ajar switch signal circuit for an open or high resistance. Refer to Circuit Testing , and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems. Did you find and correct the condition?	Go to Step 13	Go to Step 7
7	Inspect for poor connections at the cargo door or liftgate ajar switches. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections , and Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems. Did you find and correct the condition?	Go to Step 13	Go to Step 8
8	Inspect for poor connections at the harness connector of the BCM. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections , and Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems. Did you find and correct the condition?	Go to Step 13	Go to Step 10
9	Inspect for poor connections at the harness connector of the instrument panel cluster (IPC). Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections , and Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems. Did you find and correct the condition?	Go to Step 13	Go to Step 11
10	Replace the malfunctioning door ajar switch. Refer to Liftgate Latch Replacement , or Door Latch Replacement (Cargo Door Lower) , Door Latch Replacement (Cargo Door Upper) . Did you complete the replacement?	Go to Step 13	-
11	IMPORTANT: When replacing the BCM refer to Body Control Module (BCM) Programming/RPO Configuration , in Body Control System. Replace the body control module (BCM). Refer to Body Control Module Replacement in Body Control System. Did you complete the replacement?	Go to Step 13	-
12	Replace the instrument panel cluster. Refer to Instrument Cluster Replacement in Instrument Panel, Gauges and Console. Did you complete the replacement?	Go to Step 13	-
13	Operate the system in order to verify the repair. Did you correct the condition?	System OK	Go to Step 3
