  1. Remove the trunk lid trim. (See «TRUNK LID TRIM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION»(ref-367662-S37640661352010072700000) .)
  2. Disconnect the trunk compartment light switch connector.
  3. Verify that the continuity between the trunk compartment light switch terminals is as indicated in the table. If not as indicated in the table, replace the trunk lock.

PANEL LIGHT CONTROL SWITCH INSPECTION

  1. Connect the panel light control switch connector.
  2. Connect the negative battery cable.
  3. Measure the voltage at each terminal. If the voltage is not as specified in the Terminal Voltage Table (Reference), inspect the parts under "Inspection item(s)".
  4. Disconnect the panel light control switch connector. If there is any malfunction, inspect the parts under "Inspection item(s)". If the system does not work properly even though the parts or related wiring harnesses do not have any malfunction, replace the panel light control switch.
