*: w/ Power Back Door Hazard Warning Light
POWER BACK DOOR SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The power back door system controls the power back door by automatically opening and closing the power back door with a motor.
The power back door system operates only when the necessary conditions are met.
The back door motor unit records the back door positions in the back door motor unit.
If the battery, power source fuses of the power back door system, or back door motor unit is removed and then reinstalled, the back door motor unit loses the memory of the door positions.
In such cases, initialization of the back door motor unit is necessary. Refer to Initialization.
The back door motor unit receives "OPEN/CLOSE" request signals for the back door. Then, the back door motor unit controls the back door opening/closing operation by sending commands to the back door lock assembly and back door motor.
The power back door system has various request signals: "OPEN/CLOSE" request signal from the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly (power back door button), "OPEN/CLOSE" request signal from the map light assembly (power back door switch), "OPEN" request signal from the back door opener switch assembly, "OPEN/CLOSE" request signal from the back door control switch, and "ON/OFF" request signal from the combination meter assembly.
The power back door system sets off an alarm (using a buzzer) and hazard warning lights* when the power back door starts operating.
The power back door reverses the direction that the power back door is operating if any switch is pressed during operation.
A pulse sensor and a power back door sensor assembly are used to prevent anything from being caught in the door while the power back door is closing (jam protection function).
