Opening Cycle

Trunk lid may be opened by key or by depressing lid release button in glove box. When lid release button is depressed, the motor is energized and lid moves downward slightly and then upward. As lid moves upward, output cam trips the lock release actuator. Simultaneously, plunger contacts striker completing motor ground circuit and also closes actuator switch contacts completing motor power circuit. The motor operates raising striker to its full up position and then plunger allows actuator to break power circuit stopping motor and striker breaks contact for ground circuit. If lid is released by key lock, when lock hook clears striker, motor switch contacts will complete circuits and raise striker.
