WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

Door Lock Switches

The door lock switches are integrated into one unit to the power window master switch and the front passenger's power window switch.

Door Lock Knob Switch/Door Lock Actuator/Door Key Cylinder Switch

The door lock knob switch and the door lock actuator are built into the door latch of each door. The door lock knob switch detects the lock and unlock states of the lock mechanism. The door lock actuator receives lock and unlock commands from the MICU, and moves the lock mechanism back and forth between the lock and unlock position. The driver's door key cylinder switch is included in the driver's door latch assembly. In conjunction with the key cylinder, it detects the lock/unlock of the key cylinder.

Trunk Lid Release Actuator/Trunk Lid Latch Switch

The MICU receives an ON signal from the trunk lid outer handle, then the MICU outputs a signal to the trunk lid release actuator, and the trunk lid release actuator unlocks the trunk latch. The trunk lid latch switch is the ON/OFF switch that detects the opening/closing of the trunk. If the trunk lid release actuator is abnormal, the trunk lid may be opened manually with the lock lever.
