Power Liftgate Procedure

  1. Closing will start after signals from crash pad switch, liftgate inner switch, or wireless remote key(FOB) are received.
  2. To close the liftgate, the PTGM will operate the Spindle motors.
  3. The PTGM monitors the Closing angle of the liftgate by counting the pulses from the hall sensors.
  4. The liftgate latch is put on the striker, and if the seal force is not too weak the latch will be on the Half Lock position. (latch full open → latch half lock)
  5. After the Half Lock switch signal from the latch is received, PTGM will stop the liftgate spindle motor operation.
  6. PTGM will engage voltage to PCU and the PCU will start cinching operation until PTGM receives Full Lock signal from the latch.
  7. The liftgate is fully closed, and the latch is fully locked.
