Functional description

This electric motor is activated by the charging interface module (LIM) or the convenience charging electronics (KLE). The request for unlocking or locking the charging socket cover is issued by the Body Domain Controller (BDC).

In addition, a microswitch is integrated in the central locking drive. The microswitch provides information on the state of the charging socket cover. The microswitch is not operated when the charging socket cover is closed.

The charging socket cover can be unlocked manually via an emergency release.
