Power Sliding Door System

2007 > 2.7L V6 GASOLINE >
DESCRIPTION
Power Sliding Door is an electro - mechanical system designed to provide power opening and closing of a vehicle's
sliding door through the push of a button of the transmitter key or the main control buttons on the overhead console
or the sub control buttons on the center pillar trim or inside/outside door handle switch.
The power sliding door will reverse direction of travel if resistance to movement is detected while the door is being
closed. If resistance to movement is detected while the power sliding door is being opened, the door will stop moving.
1. DRIVE UNIT
Drive unit (A) consists of a DC motor, optical sensor, clutch, cables and pulleys and wire harness. The clutch and
motor portion of the assembly provides the power and torque required to open or close the sliding door. The clutch
assembly is used to connect or disconnect the motor so that the Sliding Door may be moved manually, if desired.
2.POWER SLIDING DOOR CONTROL MODULE (PSDM)
The PSD System uses a power sliding door control module (microprocessor controller) to operate the drive unit.
Signals are received from the vehicle and used to start or stop power open or close operations. The PSDM cannot
be adjusted or repaired and if found to be faulty, must be replaced.
3.SLIDING DOOR CHIME (C)
When the power sliding door detect the resistance or abnormal operation, the chime will sound.
4.ANTI- PINCH STRIP (D)

Secondary Obstacle Detection is provided by means of a contact type strip. Strip is composed of two conductive
zones separated by an air gap. When strip is compressed, conductive zones make contact, activating the switch
signal.
Copper wire is extruded through conductive material to prevent resistive buildup. Terminating resistor is molded into
end of strip to detect failures of strip.
5.OVERHEAD CONSOLE AND REMOTE CONTROL SWITCH (A)
The power sliding doors can be opened and closed automatically with the RKE and the main control button on the
overhead console.
6.DOOR LATCH (B)
The door latch contains a detent switch [C] used to detect the latch state and report the latch state to the power
sliding door module.
7.KEYLESS ENTRY (A)
Power sliding doors can be opened and closed by pressing the button on the RKE more than 0.5 sec. Open
operation shall be reserved when an additional open/close signal is received during power opening.

8.INSIDE/OUTSIDE DOOR HANDLE SWITCH
Power sliding door can be opened and closed manually/automatically from inside or outside vehicle.
Outside door handle switch (A)
Inside door handle switch (B)
OPERATION
POWER SLIDING DOOR OPEN/CLOSE
1. The right/left sliding door is opened and closed automatically if the main switch (A) is pressed on the overhead
console.

2.When the power ON/OFF button (PWR) (B) is ON, the power sliding door and power tailgate can be opened and
closed automatically by using trim switch.
3. When the sliding door window is open (more than 3 in/80 mm), the power sliding door will not power open fully but
will open to the 3/4 position and the chime will sound 3 times.
4. General rules for chime functions
a. Chime shall operate when a power operation cannot be performed as requested except handle pull : 1 Time
(Duration 0.5 second on)
b. Chime shall operate when an obstacle has been detected : 3 Time (0.5 sec on, 0.5 sec off)
c. Chime shall operate if PSD has not reached primary latch position after a power cinch cycle : 3 Time (0.5 sec
on, 0.5 sec off)
Do not leave the power sliding door at half- opened position. Close the window and then open the door fully.
Half - opened door is held and then released after 10 minutes. The chime sounds 3 times to indicate the door
is released. If the vehicle is stopped on a downward slope, it may move and cause an injury.
POWER SLIDING DOOR OPERATING CONDITION
1.The sliding door will not power open when vehicle is moving above 3 mph (5 km/h) or the gearshift lever is not in
P (Park) for automatic transaxle.
2. The power sliding door will not open with the transmitter or the main control button when all power sliding doors
are locked and closed.
3. The power sliding door will detect the resistance, then stop movement or move to the full open position to allow the
object to be cleared.
4. The left sliding door cannot be opened when the fuel filler lid is open.
5. If the automatic stop and reversal feature operates continuously more than twice during one opening or closing
operation, the power sliding door may stop at that position. At this time, close the doors manually and operate the
door automatically again.
6. The power sliding door can be opened by pulling the outside door handle while the door is unlocked and child
safety lock is engaged.
a.If the fuel filler lid is opened when the left sliding door is not closed completely, the door may be opened.
Close the left sliding door before refueling to prevent possible damage to the door or the fuel filler lid.
b. Sudden starting or accelerating the vehicle while the door is closing could cause it to open the door and
result in a serious injury or damage to cargo.
c. The PSDM will go to a sleep mode and power operation will be disabled if the sliding door is left open
longer than 6 hours. Manually close the sliding door to the latched position to reset the PSDM. Power
operation will be restored.

a.The door could suddenly close by itself and cause a serious injury especially when stopping on a down - hill
grade.
b. To prevent the battery from being discharged, do not leave the power sliding door and power tailgate at
open position for a long time.
a.Let the rear passengers get on or off the vehicle after the door is open fully. Sudden closing could cause a
serious injury.
b. To prevent power sliding door system, don't use excessive force to open/close the door during operation.
CHILD SAFETY LOCKS
To prevent children from opening the power sliding doors from the inside, the child safety locks (A) should be used
whenever children are in the vehicle.
Be careful, when the child safety lock is used in an accident, that the passengers are not held in vehicle.
POWER OPERATION
The PSD system shall not open the Sliding Door when the vehicle is moving.
The PSD system shall operate through the full range of Sliding Door travel.
The PSD system shall learn the position of each travel extreme: full open and full closed.

1.Vehicle condition
Moving
a. (IGN=OFF and Vehicle Speed > 5 km/h) or (IGN= ON and (Vehicle Speed > 5 km/h or PIN - not P/N))
Not moving a. (IGN=OFF and Vehicle Speed < 5 km/h) or (IGN= ON and (Vehicle Speed < 5 km/h and TRANS - P/N))
2. DOOR TRAVEL - ZONES
The door travel is divided into four zones starting at the full closed and latched position.
Dimensions are at the rear edge of the door and are approximate.
Zone 1 - Latching - 0 to 10 mm (primary and secondary latch positions).
Zone 2 - Near latching position including curved track portion - 10 to 300 mm.
Zone 3 - Straight track - 300 mm to hold open latch.
Zone 4 - Hold Open - door in hold open latch.
POWER SLIDING DOOR OPERATION
1.Vehicle condition
Stopping condition
a. When the ignition switch is in the OFF or ACC position, vehicle is stopped or moving below 5 km/h.
b. When the ignition switch is in the ON position, vehicle is stopped or moving below 5 km/h (the gearshift lever is
in N(Neutral) for manual transaxle, P(Park) for automatic transaxle).
Driving condition a. When the ignition switch is in the OFF or ACC position, vehicle is moving above 5 km/h.
b. When the ignition switch is in the ON position, vehicle is moving above 5 km/h or the gearshift lever is not in
N(Neutral) for manual transaxle, P(Park) for automatic transaxle.
