Pinch Strip Switch

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Ford Expedition. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The power liftgate pinch strips are membrane-style switches. When the pinch strip is compressed, the contacts inside the switch make contact and provide a signal to the LTM to indicate an obstacle is present and prevent the liftgate from closing.
