AUTOMATIC BACK DOOR SYSTEM
Revision: August 20072004 QX56
System DescriptionEIS002SV
The automatic back door system consists of a one piece unit that combines the back door control unit along
with the back door motor, back door clutch and the back door encoder. The back door latch contains a lock
function that can control the two functions of automatic back door latch closure and electrical opener with a
single motor when you close the back door to the halfway-state.

Back door auto closure
When the back door is closed to the halfway state (half-latch) position, the motor automatically drives to
rotate the latch lever and pull it in from half latched to full latched.

Power back door
With the back door closed, press the power liftgate switch or press the remote keyless entry button, or pull
the back door handle with the back door unlocked, the back door latch motor opens the locking plate and
releases the latch. The back door motor then raises the door to the full open position.
With the back door fully open, press the power liftgate switch, remote keyless entry button or the back
door close switch, the back door motor closes the door to the half-latch state. The back door latch motor
then drives the latch to the full close position.
At the onset of each power open or power close application, the hazard lamps will flash 3 times and the
warning chime will sound 3 times lasting a total of 2 seconds.
OPERATION DESCRIPTION
Power Liftgate Switch Operation (Fully Closed → Fully Open Operation)

When the power liftgate switch is pressed, back door control unit terminal 23 receives the signal.

The back door control unit checks the A/T selector lever (P position) through terminal 18, vehicle speed
through terminal 21, ignition status through terminal 7, glass hatch is closed through terminal 17 and bat-
tery voltage is present through terminal 3.

When the back door control unit receives the signal, if the auto back door operating enable conditions are
met, it sends a 5 volt signal through terminal 6 and grounds terminal 9 to sound the warning chime, sends
a signal to the BCM through terminal 4 to flash the hazard lamps and unlocks the back door latch through
terminal 12.

The back door control unit supplies power to the magnetic clutch and the back door motor and moves the
back door in the open direction. (At this time, it also executes speed control, input reverse, and anti-pinch
detection control.)

When the back door is opened to the full-open position, the full-open position is detected by the encoder,
and the back door control unit switches the back door motor OFF and the magnetic clutch is pulsed and
then turned OFF.

The back door is held in the fully open position by the gas stays.
Remote Keyless Entry Operation (Fully Closed → Fully Open Operation)

When the remote keyless entry button is pressed for at least 0.5 seconds, back door control unit terminal
21 receives the signal.

The back door control unit checks the A/T selector lever (P position) through terminal 18, vehicle speed
through terminal 21, ignition status through terminal 7, glass hatch is closed through terminal 17 and bat-
tery voltage is present through terminal 3.

When the back door control unit receives the signal, if the auto back door operating enable conditions are
met, it sends a 5 volt signal through terminal 6 and grounds terminal 9 to sound the warning chime, sends
a signal to the BCM through terminal 4 to flash the hazard lamps and unlocks the back door latch through
terminal 12.

The back door control unit supplies power to the magnetic clutch and the back door motor and moves the
back door in the open direction. (At this time, it also executes speed control, input reverse, and anti-pinch
detection control.)

When the back door is opened to the full-open position, the full-open position is detected by the encoder,
and the back door control unit switches the back door motor OFF and the magnetic clutch is pulsed and
then turned OFF.

The back door is held in the fully open position by the gas stays.

Back Door Handle Switch Operation (Fully Closed → Fully Open Operation)

When the back door handle is pulled, back door control unit terminal 26 receives the signal.

The back door control unit checks that the back door is unlocked and checks the A/T selector lever (P
position) through terminal 18, vehicle speed through terminal 21, ignition status through terminal 7, glass
hatch is closed, battery voltage and back door close switch position through terminal 13.

When the back door control unit receives the signal, if all auto back door operating enable conditions are
met, it sends a 5 volt signal through terminal 6 and grounds terminal 9 to sound the warning chime, sends
a signal to the BCM through terminal 4 to flash the hazard lamps and unlocks the back door latch through
terminal 12.

The back door control unit supplies power to the magnetic clutch and the back door motor and moves the
back door in the open direction. (At this time, it also executes speed control, input reverse, and anti-pinch
detection control.)

When the back door is opened to the full-open position, the full-open position is detected by the encoder,
and the back door control unit switches the back door motor OFF and the magnetic clutch is pulsed and
then turned OFF.

The back door is held in the fully open position by the gas stays.
Power Liftgate Switch Operation (Fully Open → Fully Closed Operation)

When the power liftgate switch is pressed, the back door control unit terminal 23 receives the signal.

The back door control units checks door position through the rotary encoder.

When the back door control unit receives the signal, if the auto back door operating enable conditions are
met, it sends a signal through terminal 6 and grounds terminal 9 to sound the warning chime and sends a
signal to the BCM through terminal 4 to flash the hazard lamps.

The back door control unit supplies power to the magnetic clutch and the back door motor and move the
back door in the close direction. (At this time, it also executes speed control, input reverse, and anti-pinch
detection control.)

When the back door reaches the half-latch state, the half-latch switch detects this and the signal is sent to
the back door control unit terminal 22.

When the back door control unit receives the half latch switch signal, it switches OFF the back door motor
and the magnetic clutch and operates the cinch latch motor.

When the back door latch operates and full close is detected through terminal 14 of the back door control
unit, the cinch latch motor reverses to the neutral position and the back door auto closure operation ends
and the door is fully closed.
Remote Keyless Entry Operation (Fully Open → Fully Closed Operation)

When the remote keyless entry switch is pressed for at least 0.5 seconds, the back door control unit termi-
nal 21 receives the signal.

The back door control units checks door position through the rotary encoder.

When the back door control unit receives the signal, if the auto back door operating enable conditions are
met, it sends a signal through terminal 6 and grounds terminal 9 to sound the warning chime and sends a
signal to the BCM through terminal 4 to flash the hazard lamps.

The back door control unit supplies power to the magnetic clutch and the back door motor and move the
back door in the close direction. (At this time, it also executes speed control, input reverse, and anti-pinch
detection control.)

When the back door reaches the half-latch state, the half-latch switch detects this and the signal is sent to
the back door control unit terminal 22.

When the back door control unit receives the half latch switch signal, it switches OFF the back door motor
and the magnetic clutch and operates the cinch latch motor.

When the back door latch operates and full close is detected through terminal 14 of the back door control
unit, the cinch latch motor reverses to the neutral position and the back door auto closure operation ends
and the door is fully closed.
