Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 GMC Acadia, 2016 Chevrolet Traverse, and 2016 Buick Enclave. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the L/GATE relay.
  2. Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 86 and B+.
  3. Command the liftgate latch assembly by pressing and releasing the exterior liftgate control switch. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.
    • If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
    • If the test lamp is always ON, test the liftgate relay high circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
  4. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the L/GATE relay.
