2015 suburban glass hatch switch

[doc73]

The glass hatch switch quit working. I replaced it with a new one. In less than two weeks that switch too has quit working. Where is my problem? Switch or wiring?

You may have a connector that needs cleaning or replacing, a bad connection or high impedance can cause things like this. May take the connector off there and look at the pins, see if any corrosion is present. If not at the switch you may have to check the connector from the hatch to the body also.

Does it still work off the remote?

I don’t have a working remote at this time so I don’t know.

Does it work from the overhead console? Also, did you use an OEM part or advance auto special?

I pulled the actuator motor and checked the pin ohm readings. Two of the pins give me about a 5.5 reading every other combination has no reading. Would this be correct? Problem is I can’t tell what color wire is witch pin.

My truck does not have a button for the glass hatch at the overhead console.

So I swapped buttons from the tailgate and glass hatch. Both buttons work on the hatch and neither one pop opens the glass hatch. So it’s probably the actuator?
