Unit Alignment

NOTE: It is important to determine if motor is shut off (not in stall condition) and output cam is against anti-reversing stop.
  1. With engine off, connect ammeter in motor power circuit at motor connector.
  2. Hold meter outside trunk with leads draped over weatherstrip. Close lid and allow unit to completely close and note current reading. Reading during closing cycle should be about 2-3 Amps.
  3. After closing cycle is complete, approximately 3-4 seconds, ammeter should drop to zero. If meter does not read zero with lid closed, unit is adjusted too low and motor is in stall condition. To correct, align unit upward.
