Ambient Temperature Sensor Circuit Shorted to Ground

Tests 1 - 2:

Tests 3 - 4:

SYMPTOM
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE SENSOR CIRCUIT SHORT TO GROUND

WHEN MONITORED
Whenever the Power Liftgate Module is awake.

SET CONDITION
If the module senses a resistance below 1000 ohms on the Liftgate Temperature Sensor Signal circuit, this code will set. The normal range for the sensor is 1.2K to 382K ohms. At room temperature (68 °F) the resistance will be between 11.2 K and 13.5K ohms.

POSSIBLE CAUSES
- DTC present
- Liftgate temperature sensor signal circuit short to ground.
- Power liftgate module - TEMP sense short to ground
- Liftgate temperature sensor signal wire short to ground wire
- Liftgate temperature sensor
