Trunk Lid Pull-Down

CIRCUIT OPERATION OPENING
Voltage is applied at all times from Relay Center Fuse 1 to the pull-down unit terminal A. When the luggage compartment lid is opened the open/closed switch moves to the "OPEN" position and the luggage compartment lid latch switch moves to the "UNLATCHED" position. The striker switches are shown in the schematic (STRIKER DOWN). Battery voltage is applied through the center striker switch to the motor. The motor is grounded through the right striker switch and the trunk open/closed switch to ground. The motor drives the lock striker up to prepare for closing. When the lock striker is fully extended the striker switches moves to the "STRIKER EXTENDED" position. Battery voltage is applied to the motor in the opposite direction through the center striker switch. When the luggage compartment lid is closed the motor is grounded through the left striker switch and the luggage compartment lid latch switch. The motor drives the lock down and the luggage compartment lid closes. The striker switches move to the "STRIKER DOWN" position and the trunk open/closed switch moves to the "TRUNK CLOSED" position. This removes ground from the striker motor and stops the striker motor from running.
