The power liftgate button and exterior liftgate handle switch are parallel circuits and provide a single input to the liftgate module (LGM). The

liftgate switches are supplied voltage and share a common low reference circuit from the LGM. When the switch contacts close, the LGM detects

the voltage drop and commands the liftgate to open or close depending upon the position of the liftgate at the time.
