B1965 - Power Liftgate Sensor Supply Circuit Low






For a complete wiring diagram, refer to.

When Monitored: Whenever the power liftgate module is awake.

Set Condition: The power liftgate module has detected the sensor supply circuit voltage is under 4.0 volts.






Test Step 1 - DTC Present

With the scan tool, record DTCs and any liftgate inhibitors.

Erase DTCs.

Turn the ignition OFF, wait 10 seconds, then turn the ignition ON.

Operate the liftgate several times.

With the scan tool, check for DTCs.

Does the scan tool display B1965 - Power Liftgate Sensor Supply Circuit Low?

Yes

Go to Test Step 2

No

Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors for an intermittent condition.

Perform the Body Verification Test. Refer to => Non-DTC Based Diagnostics. Body Interior

Test Step 2 - Power Liftgate Drive Unit






Disconnect and inspect the power liftgate drive unit harness connector. Clean and repair if necessary and repeat step 1. If the connector is OK, continue testing.

Erase DTCs.

Turn the ignition OFF, wait 10 seconds, then turn the ignition ON.

With the scan tool, check for DTCs.

Does the scan tool display B1965 - Power Liftgate Sensor Supply Circuit Low?

Yes

Go to Test Step 3

No

Replace the power liftgate drive unit.

Perform the Body Verification Test. Refer to => Non-DTC Based Diagnostics. Body Interior

Test Step 3 - Position Sensor Supply Circuit Short to Ground






Turn the ignition OFF.

Disconnect the power liftgate module C1 harness connector.

Measure the resistance between ground and the position sensor supply circuit.

Is the resistance less than 10k ohms?

No

Replace the power liftgate module.

Perform the Body Verification Test. Refer to => Non-DTC Based Diagnostics. Body Interior
