The present disclosure relates to a closure latch assembly for a vehicle door, and more particularly to a closure latch assembly for a vehicle door equipped with a powered reset feature. To this end, the present disclosure relates to the use of a power actuator to actuate an actuatable mechanism in a power-on state, and an electronic reset circuit mechanism to reset the actuatable mechanism when the power actuator is in a power-off state. The electronic reset circuit mechanism is coupled to an electric motor associated with the power actuator.

Closure latch assembly with power reset circuit mechanism and method for reset

An isolation system for an electric motor of an actuatable mechanism is provided. The system includes a primary motor driving circuit and a secondary motor driving circuit each coupled to the electric motor. The secondary motor driving circuit is coupled to an external motor controller configured to provide a secondary driving signal to the secondary motor driving circuit. A primary controller is coupled to the primary motor driving circuit and configured to monitor the secondary driving signal and control the primary motor driving circuit. An isolation logic unit is coupled to the primary and secondary motor driving circuits and the primary controller and the external motor controller. The isolation logic unit is configured to isolate the primary motor driving circuit from the secondary motor driving circuit in response to the external motor controller providing the secondary driving signal to the secondary motor driving circuit.
