Fuel Door: Description and Operation
Fuel Filler Flap
Fuel Filler Flap
The hinged fuel filler flap which is attached to the rear saddle panel by two nuts, incorporates a rubber buffer, snap-in striker, hinge spring and fuel cap
stowage magnet. The rubber fuel bowl moulding attached via a steel armature to the body reinforcement panel, is retained at the filler neck by a clip. A
mating drain tube is fitted with an internal filter. The filler flap latch mechanism which is secured by nuts to the fuel bowl armature, comprises a locking
pin and actuator. The actuator, driven directly by the security and locking control module, operates independently from the central locking system.
Locking of the fuel filler flap can only be achieved by operation of the key or the remote of transmitter.
