B1184
Fifth bow latch microswitch, shorting to B+
Condition
This trouble code is generated when shorting to battery positive occurs on pin 25 (k42).
Diagnostic Procedure
1 Connect an ISAT Scan Tool and read "5TH BOW LATCH". Clear the trouble code if the SAT Scan Tool shows correct readings. Check that the code is not generated afresh. If the scan tool shows shorting to battery positive, see point 2.
2 Unplug the connector from the microswitch, checking on the ISAT scan tool at the same time to see what happens. If the scan tool changes from "shorting to battery positive" to "open circuit", there is a short circuit in the microswitch. Change the microswitch.
3 Check the wiring harness for shorting to battery positive between pin 2 of the microswitch connector and pin 25 (k42) of the control module.
