Microswitch, Soft Top Cover Latch











Microswitch, Soft Top Cover Latch

There are microswitches at each of the soft top cover latches that sense when the cover is in lock position and is ready for locking.
Pin 3 on the left microswitch is connected to control module pin 5 and microswitch pin 2 is connected to grounding point G36.
Pin 3 on the right microswitch is connected to control module pin 33 and microswitch pin 2 is connected to grounding point G36.
When the ignition is turned to ON, the control module feeds B+ from pins 5 and 33 via a 1 K Ohm resistor to the microswitches and when the soft top cover is locked, the microswitches close and ground the control module inputs.
