Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Cadillac DTS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the rear compartment lid latch.
- Test for less than 1.0 ohm of resistance between the ground circuit terminal 3 and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Ignition ON, verify the Trunk Ajar message on the DIC is not displayed.
- If the Trunk ajar message is displayed, test the signal circuit terminal 1 for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
- Install a 3-amp fused jumper between the signal circuit terminal 1 and ground. Verify the Trunk Ajar message is displayed on the DIC.
- If the Trunk Ajar message is not displayed, test the signal circuit terminal 1 for a short to voltage or and open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the rear compartment lid latch.
