- Deck Lid Unlatched Right Front Sensor Circuit circuit/component protection time out

Diagnostic Fault Information






Circuit/System Description

S9 is part of the Rear Compartment Lid Release Switch - Front Hinge - Right assembly. The folding top control (FTC) module uses S9 to determine if the right side of the deck lid is in a reverse open position. S9 is closed and pulls the signal circuit low when the deck lid is in a reverse open position during top operation.

Conditions for Running the DTC

The FTC module is operational.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

An open or short to ground is detected on the signal circuit of S9.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The top is disabled.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

The fault is no longer present and the top completes one cycle.

Diagnostic Aids

* A short to B+ may damage S9.
* A weak battery may cause DTC B366E 59 to set.
* An open or high resistance on the low reference circuit may cause a DTC B366D 59 to also set.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at S9.
2. Verify the scan tool RF RCL Unlatched Switch parameter is Inactive.

• If not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal A for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the FTC module.

3. Connect a fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal A and ground.
4. Verify the scan tool RF RCL Unlatched Switch parameter is Active.

• If not the specified value, test the signal circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the FTC module.

5. Test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace S9
