Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Information

Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) information REM-6A15

Condition




The rear electrical module (REM) checks if the tailgate is open or closed using a switch in the lock unit of the tailgate. The switch provides a ground to the rear electronic module (REM) when the tailgate is shut.
The rear electronic module (REM) checks the status of the switch by powering it for a short period ("polling").
The diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is stored if the rear electronic module (REM) receives a high signal from thetailgateswitch when the control module has not polled that switch. This is seen as a short-circuit to supply voltage in the switch or the cable to the switch.

Substitute value
- None.

Possible source
- Short-circuit to supply voltage in the switch for indicating a closed tailgate.

Fault symptom[s]
- General warning lamp lit.
- Message in the display.
- Does not alarm the tailgate.
