PINPOINT TEST B: THE POWER LIFTGATE IS INOPERATIVE FROM AN INDIVIDUAL SWITCH
Normal Operation
If the power liftgate is operated from the power liftgate control switch (instrument panel), circuit CPR63 (GY/YE) is grounded by the open/close switch, which signals the liftgate/trunk module (LTM) of the open/close request. If the power liftgate is operated from the rear switch (quarter trim panel), circuit CPR70 (GN) is grounded by the rear switch through circuit GD149 (BK/GY). If the power liftgate is operated from the liftgate handle, the smart junction box (SJB) sends a voltage signal to the LTM through circuit CPL10 (GNAVH).

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- Power liftgate control switch (instrument panel)
- Power liftgate rear control switch (quarter trim panel)
- LTM
- SJB

When to See a Mechanic
Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:
- β’ You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- β’ Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- β’ The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- β’ You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- β’ You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
