Rear Compartment Lid Latch
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the M40 rear compartment lid latch.
- Install a 10 A fused jumper wire between the control terminal 1 and 12 V. Install a jumper wire between the ground terminal 2 and ground.
- Verify the M40 rear compartment lid latch activates
- If the M40 rear compartment lid latch does not activate.
Replace the M40 rear compartment lid latch.

- If the M40 rear compartment lid latch does not activate.
- All OK
Trunk Release Switch
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S58 rear compartment lid unlatch switch.
- Test for infinite resistance between the signal terminal 3 and the ground terminal 1 with the switch in the open position.
- If less than infinite resistance
Replace the S58 rear compartment lid unlatch switch.
- If infinite resistance
- If less than infinite resistance
- Test for less than 3 Ω between the signal terminal 3 and the ground terminal 1 with the switch in the closed position.
- If 3 Ω or greater
Replace the S58 rear compartment lid unlatch switch.
- If less than 3 Ω
- If 3 Ω or greater
- All OK
