ELECTRIC TAILGATE CONTROL UNIT

The electric tailgate motor consists of an electric 
motor assembly (incorporating an electromagnetic 
clutch and gears), gears and arms. It is integrated in 
the electric tailgate control unit. As the motor runs to 
the open or close direction, the gears (No.1, No.2, 
and No.3) will rotate in that order, thus turning the 
arm.

TAILGATE LATCH

The tailgate latch includes the latch motor and 
switches. With each switch, ON and OFF is switched 
by the lever movement.

• A half latch switch detects that the latch remains 

ajar (not engaged fully). This prevents the electric 
tailgate from opening unintentionally.

• A full latch switch detects that the electric tailgate 

remains closed fully (overrun*).

NOTE: *: Overrun indicates that the striker is pulled 

further to close side by the tailgate latch in order 
to fully close the electric tailgate securely.

• A door-ajar switch detects the doors are closed 

fully. In addition, the switch detects that the elec-
tric tailgate can be opened.

• A neutral switch detects the neutral position of 

the latch motor.

TAILGATE SENSOR

While the electric tailgate is being closed automati-
cally, if pressure is applied to the tailgate sensors 
located at the both sides of electric tailgate, the sys-
tem determines that something is caught by the com-
pression of pressure detection sensor.

ELECTRIC TAILGATE MAIN SWITCH

When the electric tailgate main switch in the instru-
ment panel is OFF, the electric tailgate cannot be 
opened or closed automatically. This prevents the 
electric tailgate from an unintentional operation 
caused by the accidental pressing of electric tailgate 
switch or electric tailgate close switch of the keyless 
operation key.

NOTE: If you attempt to open or close the tailgate 
automatically while the electric tailgate main switch is 
off, the warning buzzer will sound four times to warn 
that the electric tailgate cannot be operated.

ELECTRIC TAILGATE SWITCH

When you press and hold the electric tailgate switch 
on the instrument panel, the electric tailgate is auto-
matically opened or closed to its full position.

ELECTRIC TAILGATE CLOSE SWITCH

If you turn on the electric tailgate close switch inside 
the tailgate while the tailgate is fully opened, it will be 
closed automatically to its full position.

TAILGATE LOCK RELEASE HANDLE

The electric tailgate lock release handle which 
requires a small operating force and has no tempera-
ture dependency has been adopted to improve the 
opening operation. When the handle is operated, the 
switch is turned ON or OFF. Refer to 

P.42A-9
