Power Tailgate Latches
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2021 Ford F-150. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The LH and RH power tailgate latches are responsible for unlatching, latching and cinching the tailgate. Each power tailgate latch contains a cinching/unlatching motor, a pawl switch, forkbolt primary and secondary switches, and a home switch. Each power tailgate latch is serviced as a complete assembly.
