Purpose and function in the Ford Kuga Mk2

The presented sensor is dedicated to the second-generation Ford Kuga model with an electrically operated tailgate. The component works with the tailgate control system, ensuring the system correctly responds to opening and closing commands and monitors the position of the tailgate on the right side. This allows for the continued convenience of using the trunk and ensures the proper operation of overload protection and comfort access functions.

Construction and vehicle placement

The sensor is mounted on the right side of the tailgate, in the area where the electric actuator and wiring harness are located. This positioning ensures accurate position sensing and stable operation under typical vehicle operating conditions. The design is adapted to Ford's factory mounting points, which facilitates replacement without the need for modifications or additional adjustments.

Benefits of using an original Ford component

• Compatibility with the tailgate control system and Ford body electronics.
• Stable operation of the opening and closing mechanism on the right side.
• Reduced risk of system errors resulting from the use of unsuitable aftermarket replacements. As a result, restoring the system's efficiency is predictable and in accordance with the vehicle manufacturer's specifications.
