Trunk Lid Release Actuator Test Hood Switch Test
1. Open the trunk lid.
2. Disconnect the 3P connector from the trunk lid latch switch/trunk lid release actuator.
3. Check actuator operation by connecting power to terminal No. 1 and ground to terminal No. 2
momentarily. The actuator should work.
4. If the actuator does not work, replace the trunk lid latch switch/trunk lid release actuator assembly
(see page 20-185). 1. Open the hood.
2. Disconnect the 2P connector from the hood switch.
3. Check for continuity between the terminals.
 There should be continuity between terminalsNo. 1 and No. 2 when the hood is opened (latch
released).
 There should be no continuity between terminals No. 1 and No. 2 when the hood is closed (latch
pushed down).
4. If the continuity is not as specified, replace the hood latch assembly (see page 20- 181).
