The trunk lid/tailgate lock (1) has the following functions:
- Definition of status of trunk lid or tailgate (open or closed) via the status of the trunk lid/tailgate lock main catch switch
- Locking/unlocking of trunk lid or tailgate via the central locking system via the actuation of the trunk lid/tailgate lock motor
- Definition of detents via the status of the trunk lid/tailgate lock safety catch switch and the trunk lid/tailgate lock main catch switch
- During power closing function (vehicles with power closing function)
- During automatic closing (vehicles with EASY-PACK liftgate or remote trunk closing)
Depending on the vehicle, the central signal acquisition and actuation module (SAM control unit) or the rear signal acquisition and actuation module reads in the status of the respective trunk lid/tailgate lock switch. In addition, the central signal acquisition and actuation module or the rear signal acquisition and actuation module actuates the trunk lid/tailgate lock motor accordingly.
