Open-close body controller
11536077 · 2022-12-27 · ·

An open-close body controller includes a control unit that controls a motor unit to open and close an open-close body arranged on a vehicle door between a fully closed position and a fully open position. The control unit executes a normal temperature voltage control that adjusts a speed of the open-close body by controlling a voltage supplied to the motor unit during a closing action when an outside temperature is a normal temperature and supplies the motor unit with a higher voltage than that in the normal temperature voltage control when the outside temperature is deviated from the normal temperature.
