Circuit operation
The door lock system can be controlled manually by the door lock switch, which is located in the driver door.
Battery voltage is always applied from "DOOR LOCK" fuse to the one side of door lock relay coils through R/L
wire. The other side is connected to ETWIS, which controls door lock relay contacts according to door
lock/unlock switch signal.
With the door lock switch locked, a ground signal is sent to the ETWIS module, allowing door lock relay to be
energized. When the relay is activated, battery voltage is applied from the door lock relay to terminal B(G) of
door lock motor and the terminal A(L) of the door lock motor is grounded through the door lock relay. The doors
operate for approximately 0.2~0.4 second (i.e.) while the relay is activated). All doors are locked.
When the door lock switch is unlocked, battery voltage is applied to the door lock motors in opposite side and
the other side to be grounded. The motors operate in opposite direction and all doors are unlocked.
