CAUTION

If the battery/fuse is removed or replaced while 
the electric tailgate is being opened, the electric 
tailgate cannot be closed by performing the auto-
matic operation. In this case, fully open the elec-
tric tailgate manually.

DIAGNOSIS CODE PROCEDURES

Code No. B2480: Electromagnetic clutch short

DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION

When the electromagnetic clutch of electric tailgate 
motor is short circuited, the electric tailgate control 
unit sets diagnosis code No. B2480.

JUDGMENT CRITERIA

When the electromagnetic clutch output current of 
electric tailgate motor is detected to be abnormal, the 
electric tailgate control unit sets diagnosis code No. 
B2480.

PROBABLE CAUSES

Malfunction of the electric tailgate control unit.

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

Diagnosis code recheck
(1) Clear all the diagnosis codes stored in the electric 

tailgate control unit.

(2) Operate the electric tailgate.
(3) Check whether a diagnosis code is set in the 

electric tailgate control unit.

Q: Is the diagnosis code set?

YES : 

Replace the electric tailgate control unit.

NO : 

Intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 
00 

− How to Use 

Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - 
How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction .)

Code No. B2481: Pulse sensor power supply short

DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION

When the pulse sensor power supply of electric tail-
gate motor is short circuited, the electric tailgate con-
trol unit sets diagnosis code No. B2481.

JUDGMENT CRITERIA

When the pulse sensor power supply output current 
of electric tailgate motor is detected to be abnormal, 
the electric tailgate control unit sets diagnosis code 
No. B2481.

PROBABLE CAUSES

Malfunction of the electric tailgate control unit.

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

Diagnosis code recheck
(1) Clear all the diagnosis codes stored in the electric 

tailgate control unit.

(2) Operate the electric tailgate.
(3) Check whether a diagnosis code is set in the 

electric tailgate control unit.

Q: Is the diagnosis code set?

YES : 

Replace the electric tailgate control unit.

NO : 

Intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 
00 

− How to Use 

Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - 
How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction .)

Code No. B2482: No detection of neutral SW

DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION

When the neutral switch signal of tailgate latch is not 
detected, the electric tailgate control unit sets diag-
nosis code No. B2482.

JUDGMENT CRITERIA

When the electric tailgate motor returns to the neutral 
position, if the neutral switch signal of tailgate latch is 
not detected, the electric tailgate control unit sets 
diagnosis code No. B2482.

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Damaged wiring harness and connectors

• Malfunction of the electric tailgate control unit

TAILGATE <VEHICLES WITH ELECTRIC TAILGATE>

BODY

42A-79

• Malfunction of tailgate latch

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

STEP 1. Neutral switch inspection.
Check the tailgate latch (refer to 

P.42A-119

).

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 2.

NO : 

Replace the tailgate latch.

STEP 2. Resistance measurement at tailgate 
latch connector (neutral switch earth line 
terminal).
(1) Disconnect the connector, and measure at the 

wiring harness side.

(2) Measure the resistance between the tailgate 

latch connector (neutral switch earth line 
terminal) and body earth.

OK: Continuity exists (2 

Ω or less)

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 4.

NO : 

Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Check of open circuit in earth line 
between tailgate latch connector (neutral switch 
terminal) and body earth.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 5.

NO : 

Repair the connector(s) or wiring harness.

STEP 4. Check of open circuit in NTL line 
between electric tailgate control unit connector 
and tailgate latch connector.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 5.

NO : 

Repair the connector(s) or wiring harness.

STEP 5. Diagnosis code recheck
(1) Clear all the diagnosis codes stored in the electric 

tailgate control unit.

(2) Operate the electric tailgate.
(3) Check whether a diagnosis code is set in the 

electric tailgate control unit.

Q: Is the diagnosis code set?

YES : 

Replace the electric tailgate control unit.

NO : 

The diagnosis is complete.

Code No. B2483: No detection of full latch SW

DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION

When the full latch switch signal of tailgate latch is 
not detected, the electric tailgate control unit sets 
diagnosis code No. B2483.

JUDGMENT CRITERIA

During the electric tailgate close operation, if the sig-
nal of tailgate latch full latch switch is not detected 
consecutively for five times, the electric tailgate con-
trol unit sets diagnosis code No. B2483.

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Damaged wiring harness and connectors

• Malfunction of the electric tailgate control unit

• Malfunction of tailgate latch

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

STEP 1. Full-latch switch check.
Check the tailgate latch (refer to 

P.42A-119

).

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 2.

NO : 

Replace the tailgate latch.

STEP 2. Resistance measurement at tailgate 
latch connector (full-latch switch earth line 
terminal).
(1) Disconnect the connector, and measure at the 

wiring harness side.

(2) Measure the resistance between the tailgate 

latch connector (full-latch switch earth line 
terminal) and body earth.

OK: Continuity exists (2 

Ω or less)

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 4.

NO : 

Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Check of open circuit in earth line 
between tailgate latch connector (full-latch 
switch terminal) and body earth.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 5.

NO : 

Repair the connector(s) or wiring harness.
