Pinpoint Test U: Sliding Door Contacts Open Fuel Filler Door
Normal Operation
The sliding door travel limiting latch system prevents the sliding door from making contact with the fuel filler door whenever the fuel filler door is unlocked and open. Opening the fuel filler door releases pressure on a spring located within the sliding door travel limiting latch cable assembly. The sliding door travel limiting latch cable assembly actuates the sliding door travel limiting latch. The sliding door travel limiting latch blocks the path of the sliding door rolling hinge stopping the sliding door.
