Detent Switch and Sector Gear Switches

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Lincoln MKC. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The detent and sector gear switches open and close to provide input to the RGTM to determine the position of the sector gear. The sector gear is part of the latch assembly. It is driven by the latch motor and in turn drives the latch mechanism. During a release operation, the RGTM deactivates the unlatch/cinching motor once the end of travel is reached. After a release operation, the RGTM keeps the latch released until the RGTM detects the latch is fully unlatched. The RGTM then reverses the direction of the unlatch/cinching motor until the sector gear switches indicate the sector gear has returned to the neutral position. Refer to the following table below for sector gear switch states:
