DTC P1695 Deck Lid/Liftgate Open Or Short To Ground
- Perform Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) system check. See RKE SYSTEM CHECK . Turn ignition on. Connect scan tool. If DTC P1695 is present, go to next step. If DTC P1695 is not present, problem is intermittent. Use scan tool to view status of Powertrain Control Module (PCM) feedback. When vehicle is not moving, PCM diagnostic feedback should indicate LOW. Use scan tool to command PCM switch open. Feedback should indicate HIGH. Wiggle wiring while monitoring PCM diagnostic feedback and watch for a change from LOW to HIGH.
- Use scan tool and verify diagnostic feedback indicates LOW. Select "0" (OFF) to command PCM switch open. Scan tool should indicate HIGH. Connect jumper wire between RKE module connector terminals "M" (Light Blue wire) and "E" (Orange wire). If diagnostic feedback does not indicate HIGH, go to next step. If diagnostic feedback indicates HIGH, replace RKE module. Clear code. Repeat RKE SYSTEM CHECK .
- Ensure RKE module connector terminals are clean and tight. Repair as necessary. If terminal contact is okay, measure voltage between RKE module terminal "E" (Orange wire) and ground. If battery voltage is not present, go to next step. If battery voltage is present, check for continuity in Light Blue wire between RKE module terminal "M" and PCM terminal J1D14. If continuity is not present, check for an open circuit or short to ground and repair as necessary. If continuity is present, clear DTC. Repeat RKE SYSTEM CHECK .
- Remove and inspect BODY fuse. If fuse is blown, repair short to ground in Orange wire. Replace fuse. Clear DTC. Repeat RKE SYSTEM CHECK. If fuse is okay, measure voltage between BODY fuse, terminal F5 (Red wire) and ground. BODY fuse is located in instrument panel junction block. If battery voltage is present, repair open circuit in Orange wire. If battery voltage is not present, repair open circuit or short to ground in Red wire. Inspect IP BATT fuse. Replace as necessary.
