POWER TRUNK LID SYSTEM

FUNCTION OF MAIN COMPONENTS

The main components of the luggage compartment door closer system have the following functions:

Component		Function
Main Body ECU (Multiplex Network Body ECU)		When the luggage door opener switch is pressed, the main body ECU transmits a signal to the multiplex network door ECU.
Luggage Closer Motor Assembly	Multiplex Network Door ECU	Controls the power trunk lid system in accordance with the signals received from the switches and ECUs.
	Luggage Closer Motor	Opens and closes the luggage compartment door when actuated by the multiplex network door ECU.
	Buzzer	The buzzer sounds once, when the luggage door closer switch is pushed.
Certification ECU (Smart Key ECU Assembly)		Sends an open signal to the main body ECU.
Power Management Control ECU		Sends a shift lever P signal to the main body ECU.
Skid Control ECU Assembly		Sends an on signal of the stop light switch assembly to the main body ECU.
Combination Meter Assembly		Sends a vehicle speed signal to the main body ECU.
Parking Brake ECU Assembly		Sends an electrical parking brake switch assembly signal to the main body ECU.
Luggage Door Opener Switch		Sends an on signal to the main body ECU to automatically open the luggage compartment door from the cabin.
Luggage Door Closer Switch		Sends an on signal to the multiplex network door ECU to automatically close the luggage compartment door from the outside.
Luggage Electrical Key Switch		Sends an on signal to the certification ECU to automatically open the luggage compartment door from the outside.
Electrical Key Transmitter Sub-assembly (Electronic Key)		Sends a luggage compartment door opener button on signal to the door control receiver.
Luggage Door Opening Cancel Switch Assembly		Setting this switch to off prohibits system operation. Even when the switch is off, the power trunk lid system can be closed.
Luggage Door Closer Assembly - Luggage Door Closer Motor		In accordance with the signals received from the switches, the luggage door closer assembly automatically closes the luggage compartment door that is ajar to the fully closed state. This is accomplished by actuating the motor to push and turn the latch in order to pull the striker in. Upon receiving the open signals from the switches, the system actuates the motor to disengage the latch. As a result, the striker disengages from the latch, enabling the luggage compartment door to open.
Electric Parking Brake Switch Assembly		Sends an on signal to the parking brake ECU assembly.
Door Control Receiver		Sends a luggage compartment door opener button on signal received from the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly (electronic key) to the certification ECU.
Wireless Door Lock Buzzer*		Sounds once when the luggage compartment door is opened using the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly (electronic key).

CONSTRUCTION

Luggage Door Opening Cancel Switch Assembly

The luggage door opening cancel switch assembly is located inside the glove box.

When the luggage door opening cancel switch assembly is turned off, the luggage compartment door opener system can be canceled.

Luggage Closer Motor Assembly

The luggage closer motor assembly consists of a multiplex network door ECU, a luggage closer motor, a gear, an arm and so on.
The luggage closer motor assembly moves the luggage compartment hinge assembly LH by driving the luggage closer motor to rotate the arm, thus opening and closing the luggage compartment door.

The luggage closer motor consists of a motor, a magnet clutch, a Hall IC and so on. The Hall IC detects the position of the 64-pole magnet installed on the outer circumference of the magnet clutch. The detected result is input to the multiplex network door ECU, which judges the speed, position and opening and closing directions of the luggage compartment door.

OPERATION

Opener Function
1. When the luggage door opening cancel switch assembly is on and any of the operation conditions are met while the luggage compartment door is fully closed, the opening operation of the luggage compartment door is performed by pressing the luggage door opener switch, the luggage electrical key switch or the luggage compartment door opener button of the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly (electronic key).
2. The open function operates as follows:
  1. When the open function operation has started, the magnet clutch in the luggage closer motor assembly is turned on and the luggage door closer motor in the luggage door closer assembly is driven counterclockwise to release the latch.
  2. When detecting that the half switch has turned from off to on, the luggage closer motor in the luggage closer motor assembly is driven in the opening direction to open the luggage compartment door.
  3. The closer pulse detects the end point of the closer gear to stop the luggage door closer motor.
  4. When the luggage compartment door is opened more than a certain amount by the door pulse signal, the luggage door closer motor starts to drive clockwise.
  5. When the closer pulse detects the neutral position of the closer gear, it stops the operation of the luggage door closer motor.
  6. After the door pulse signal has detected the fully opened position of the luggage compartment door, the magnet clutch turns off and the drive of the luggage closer motor stops. Thereafter, the luggage compartment door maintains its fully-opened position by the reaction force of the torsion bar spring.
Closer Function
1. When the luggage door close switch is pressed while the luggage compartment door is fully open, the closing operation of the luggage compartment door is performed.
2. The closer function operates as follows:
  1. When the closer function has started, the buzzer in the multiplex network door ECU sounds once, the magnet clutch in the luggage closer motor assembly is turned on and the luggage closer motor is driven in the closing direction, thus closing the luggage compartment door.
  2. When detecting that the half switch in the luggage door closer assembly has turned from on to off, it stops the luggage closer motor and drives the luggage door closer motor clockwise to start the closing operation.
  3. When detecting that the pawl switch is off, the magnet clutch is turned to off.
  4. After the closer function detects that the closer pulse signal is in the neutral position of the closer gear, the luggage door closer motor stops and the luggage compartment door is fully closed to complete the operation.
Jam Protection Function
1. The multiplex network door ECU determines the jamming of the trunk lid system upon receiving the signals from the Hall ICs.
2. The multiplex network door ECU determines the luggage compartment door movement distance and the luggage compartment door opening/closing speed (door foreign object jamming) via the pulse signals from the Hall IC, and the luggage compartment door position (door movement direction) from the phase difference between the pulses from Hall IC 1 and Hall IC 2.
3. If a foreign object gets jammed during opening or closing of the power trunk lid, the pulse width of the output signal from Hall IC changes. The multiplex network door ECU interprets this as jamming, it stops the luggage closer motor if the luggage compartment door is in open operation. If the luggage compartment door is in close operation, the ECU reverses the motor rotating direction.

DIAGNOSIS

When the multiplex network door ECU detects a malfunction, the multiplex network door ECU makes a diagnosis and memorizes the failed section.
The multiplex network door ECU will also store the 5-digit Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) of the malfunctions. The DTC can be accessed by using the Global TechStream (GTS). For details, refer to the Repair Manual.
