Re: Door Openers

[DMCVegas@xxxx]

There are 2 seperate versions of the automatic door openers from what 
I've seen. When you disarm the alarm, the doors are unlocked. To open 
either door individually, you simply push the coresponding button on 
the remote. A solenoid is mounted in the front portion of the door, 
and is connected to the lower portion of the bellcrank via a braided 
cable. When the solenoid is activated, it will pull the cable to 
rotate the bellcrank to unlatch the fore and aft striker pins. Here's 
where both versions vary:
Version 1: A "kicker" solenoid with a rubber pad is installed into 
the fiberglass underbody. Located at the rear-lower portion of the 
door, it will activate to push the door out as the door unlatches.
Version 2: The torsion bars are adjusted, and then over-torqued by 1-
2 notches. As soon as the door is unlatched, the force of the torsion 
bar will naturally force the door to rise.
