LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT DOOR OPENER SYSTEM SYSTEM DESCRIPTION


  1. LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT DOOR OPENER SYSTEM DESCRIPTION


    1. If the luggage door opening switch is pressed when the main body ECU is not receiving a luggage door opening cancel switch ON signal, and the luggage compartment door is closed, the luggage compartment door lock open operation signal is sent to the luggage closer motor via the CAN communication line. When the luggage closer motor receives that signal, it activates the luggage compartment door closer, and opens the luggage compartment door.

  3. CONSTRUCTION AND OPERATION (w/ Power Trunk Lid System)


    1. Luggage Compartment Door Lock Assembly:


      • The luggage compartment door lock is mounted on the luggage compartment door and consists mainly of a link mechanism and a closer motor. It provides two functions: the closer function to automatically close the luggage compartment door, and the opener function to disengage the striker from the luggage compartment door latch.

      • The luggage compartment door lock contains 1 courtesy light switch and position detection switch in the closer motor.

    2. Luggage Closer Motor Assembly:


      1. General


        • In the closer mode, this system operates as follows: when the state of the luggage compartment door changes from open to ajar, the signal from the courtesy light switch changes from ON to OFF. Upon receiving this signal, the ECU actuates the motor in order to push and turn the latch via the link mechanism. As a result, the latch engages with the pole portion of the striker in order to fully close the luggage compartment door.

      3. Fail-safe


        • If a system malfunction is detected by the luggage closer motor assembly, the luggage closer motor assembly stops the system. However, even if the system is deactivated, the luggage compartment door can be opened and closed manually.
