A timing chart of the back door opener switch operation has been added.
Figure 1. Timing Chart
| [T] | Component | Operation | Outline |
|---|---|---|---|
| (a) | Back Door Opener Switch | Turned On (Pressed for Approximately 0.8 Seconds) | User operation is detected. |
| Power Back Door Warning Buzzer | Changes from Off to On | When user operation is detected, the power back door warning buzzer sounds for approximately 0.8 seconds. | |
| Hazard Warning Lights*1 | Changes from Off to On | A. Power back door main switch is ON position. B. Power back door is unlocked and not operating, and tailgate is closed. C. Battery voltage is 10.5 V or more. D. Shift lever is in P and vehicle speed is 3 km/h (2 mph) or less. E. User operation is detected. When conditions A, B, C, D and E listed above are met, a flash request signal is sent to the combination meter. The combination meter flashes the hazard warning lights 2 times. |
|
| (b) | Back Door Closer Motor | Changes from Off to Release | When user operation is detected, the release rotation relay turns on and a release operation starts. |
| (c) | Magnet Clutch | Changes from Off to On | A connection to the power back door motor is made when the courtesy switch is detected to be on. |
| Power Back Door Motor | Changes from Off to Opener | F. Courtesy switch is detected to be on. G. Courtesy switch and latch switch are detected to be on. H. Condition F or G listed above is not detected for approximately 1 second or more after the back door closer motor starts a release operation. When any one of the 3 conditions listed above is met while the back door closer motor is performing a release operation, the opener relay turns on and an opener operation starts. |
|
| (d) | Back Door Closer Motor | Changes from Release to Off | When the latch switch is detected to be on, the release rotation relay turns off and the release operation stops. |
| (e) | Back Door Closer Motor | Changes from Off to Engage | I. After the latch switch is detected to be on, the pulse sensor detects a movement of 20 edges*2 in the opening direction. J. Approximately 3 seconds or more have elapsed since the back door closer motor was detected to be off. When condition I or J listed above is met, the engagement rotation relay turns on and a reverse rotation operation starts in order to return the sector gear and back door closer motor to the initial position. |
| (f) | Back Door Closer Motor | Changes from Engage to Off | When the sector switch is detected to be on, the engagement rotation relay turns off and the reverse rotation operation stops. |
| (g) | Power Back Door Motor | Changes from Opener to Off | K. The pulse sensor detects a movement of 15 edges*2 in the closing direction from the fully open position. L. Power back door motor open output is detected continuously for approximately 30 seconds or more. When condition K or L listed above is met, the opener relay turns off and the opener operation stops.*3 |
| Magnet Clutch | Changes from On to Off | The connection to the power back door motor is released. |
Tech Tips
*1: Except models for Europe
*2: Pulse unit
*3: After the power back door motor stops, the back door is fully opened by the damper force of the back door stay.
