    Does the continuity test pass~

    • Yes  : The latch ajar switch is working correctly. Do not replace latch  . Investigate for fault elsewhere in vehicle system
    • No  : Release latch claw and repeat test from step  4 to confirm result. If this is a repeat test and you are sure that the ajar switch does not provide continuity when fully latched. Replace the latch. If replacing latch as part of a warranty claim, please quote reference code AJARINOP  in the technician comments section of the warranty claim
