Power Tailgate Procedure

  1. Closing will start after signals from crash pad switch, tailgate inner switch, or wireless remote key (FOB) are received.
  2. To close the tailgate, the PTGM will operate the Spindle motors.
  3. The PTGM monitors the Closing angle of the tailgate by counting the pulses from the hall sensors.
  4. The tailgate 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 tailgate 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 tailgate is fully closed, and the latch is fully locked.
