Pinch Strip Switch

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2017 Lincoln Navigator and 2017 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.
