Rear Compartment Lid Release
Release the rear compartment lid by operating the lid release switch
or by pressing the release button on the key fob. The following conditions
must be met for the rear compartment lid to release:
• | For automatic transmission, the park /neutral position switch
must be in the PARK or NEUTRAL position. |
• | For standard transmission, the park brake must be applied. |
When a release command is received by the BCM through the lid release
switch or through the key fob, the BCM commands battery voltage to the coil
side of the lid release relay. The switch side of the lid release relay will
then close and provide battery voltage through the lid release actuator and
ground through one of the following switches:
• | The park/neutral position switch, for automatic transmission |
• | The park brake switch, for standard transmission |
Hatch Ajar Indicator
The hatch ajar indicator illuminates when the rear compartment lid is
open.
The lid ajar indicator switch closes when the rear compartment is open
and provides a ground path to the hatch ajar indicator in the IPC.
The IPC illuminates the hatch ajar indicator when the following conditions
occur:
• | The lid ajar indicator switch closes, indicating that the hatch
is open. |
• | The IPC performs the displays test at the start of each ignition
cycle. |
