Description And Operation: Description: Notes
Power Tailgate system is an electro-mechanical system that can open and close the tailgate automatically, by using local switch (push button switch inside of the tailgate, and outside handle switch), and wireless remote key (FOB), or can halt the tailgate. The Power Tailgate module (PTGM) sends and receives the vehicle's information via BCM, instrument panel, SJB and CAN communication, so that it can decide the opening/closing of the tailgate and self diagnosis.
There's a safety function to reverse its direction, when an obstacle is detected during the operation. If power mode is disabled due to discharged battery or disabled Power Tail Gate Module (PTGM), manual opening/closing is possible by using the emergency lever on the tailgate latch after unlocking the tailgate.
