Rear Left Door Lock for Tesla Model S (-2021) | 6008911-99-D
1. Core Function Description
As a critical component of the rear left door security system for Tesla Model S (up to 2021), this premium brand-grade rear left door lock is engineered to match original factory specifications, with core functions focusing on "secure locking control + vehicle system integration + durable performance":
Reliable Locking & Unlocking: Features a precision motorized actuator that supports seamless operation via Tesla key fob, mobile app, interior rear switches, or child safety lock mechanisms. It combines mechanical and electronic locking to ensure the rear left door stays secure during driving and enables convenient access.
System Synchronization: Communicates in real-time with the vehicle’s BCM and central control module, transmitting lock status to trigger functions like "door ajar" alerts on the dashboard, child lock synchronization, and anti-theft system activation when locked.
Environmental Resistance: Constructed with corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy housing and IP6K9K waterproof electronics, it withstands extreme temperatures (-40℃ to 85℃), moisture, and dust—ensuring long-term reliability in harsh conditions.
