INCOMPLETE POWER CLOSE - LATCH FAILURE —
TEST
9 Disconnect the Sliding Door Control Module C2 connector.
Measure the resistance between ground and the Pawl Switch Sense circuit.
Open the sliding door completely.
Using a screwdriver, close the latch to the first detent while observing the ohmmeter.
Release the latch with the handle. Repeat this step while observing the ohmmeter.
Did the resistance change from below 15 ohms to above 1000.0 ohms when the latch
was closed.
Yes → Replace the Power Sliding Door Module.
→ Go To 10
No
10 Disconnect the Sliding Door Control Module C2 connector.
Disconnect the Sliding Door Latch Sensing Switch connector.
Measure the resistance of the both Ground wires between the PSD C2 connector
(cavity 20) and the Sliding Door Latch Sensing Switch connector.
Wiggle the harness while observing the ohmmeter.
Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms in both ground wires at the switch connector?
Yes → Go To 11
→ Repair the Ground wire for an open.
No
11 Disconnect the Sliding Door Control Module C2 connector.
Disconnect the Sliding Door Latch Sensing Switch connector (latch assembly).
Measure the resistance of the Pawl Switch Sense wire between the PSD C2 connector
and the Sliding Door Latch Sensing Switch connector.
Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?
Yes → Go To 12
→ Repair the Pawl Switch Sense wire for an open.
No
12 If there are no possible causes remaining, view repair.
Repair
13 Disconnect the Sliding Door Control Module C2 connector.
NOTE: The Sliding Door Ajar Switch Sense circuit is also the Ratchet
Switch Sense circuit on power doors.
Disconnect the Sliding Door Latch Sensing Switch connector.
Measure the resistance between the Ground circuit (cavity 20) and the Sliding Door
Ajar Switch Sense circuit.
Open the sliding door completely.
Using a screwdriver, close the latch to the second detent while observing the
ohmmeter.
Release the latch with the handle. Repeat this step while observing the ohmmeter.
Did the resistance change from below 15 ohms to above 1000.0 ohms when the latch
was closed.
Yes → Replace the Power Sliding Door Module.
→ Go To 14
