Comfort Systems: Wiring Harnesses and Electrical Systems for Electric Tailgate Actuators
Pre-assembled wiring harnesses and assemblies for electric tailgate systems and their spindle actuators. Designed for maximum reliability under dynamic loads and engineered for continuous operation throughout the vehicle's entire service life.
Wiring harnesses for tailgate actuators: Reliability under continuous operation.
Electric tailgates are now standard features in modern vehicles. The wiring harnesses used for this purpose are subjected to high mechanical stresses throughout the vehicle’s entire service life. The continuous opening and closing of the tailgate results in constant bending, twisting, and tensile forces, which place the highest demands on materials, workmanship, and connection technology.
KE Elektronik develops and manufactures wiring harnesses for electric tailgate systems and their spindle actuators, which are specifically designed for these demanding operating conditions. The focus is on ensuring high flexibility of the cables within the tailgate’s range of motion, as well as reliable signal and power transmission even under dynamic loads.
The solutions are developed to meet specific customer and vehicle requirements and are validated for the entire vehicle lifecycle. Temperature fluctuations, vibrations, and other environmental factors are taken into account as early as the development phase to ensure consistently high operational reliability.
In addition, we implement customer-specific manufacturing processes such as overmolding of inserts, automated clip assembly, induction soldering, and potting processes. This results in robust assemblies that meet the high standards of the automotive industry.

Electric tailgate actuator
Spindle actuators for electric tailgate systems ensure touchless and quiet opening and closing of the tailgate. KE Elektronik manufactures the necessary wiring harnesses and associated components on automated production lines. We carry out process steps such as overmolding of inserts, automated clip assembly, induction soldering, and potting in accordance with individual customer specifications.
- Reliable signal and power transmission even under dynamic loads
- Designed and validated for the entire vehicle service life, taking into account temperature, vibration, and environmental factors
- Customer- and vehicle-specific solutions, as well as custom designs
Electric tailgate systems
From cable assemblies to ready-to-install modules.
Today, many tailgate actuators are integrated into vehicle production as pre-assembled systems. For this reason, KE Elektronik supplies not only individual wires but also complete, ready-to-install assemblies. These are assembled, tested, and provided in accordance with the customer-specific installation sequence.
As a wiring harness manufacturer with in-house plastic production and equipment manufacturing capabilities, we support projects from development through to mass production. Through our international production facilities, we manufacture to consistent quality standards and ensure a reliable supply for global vehicle programs.
