Abstract
A latch, including: a claw movably mounted to the latch for movement between an unlatched position and a latched position; a pawl movably mounted to the latch for movement between an engaged position and a disengaged position, wherein the pawl prevents the claw from moving from the latched position to the unlatched position when the pawl is in the engaged position; a hold open lever configured for movement between a first position wherein the hold open lever does not block movement of the pawl and a second position, wherein the hold open lever prevents the pawl from moving from the disengaged position to the engaged position; a gear rotatably mounted to the latch for movement between a first position and a second position, the gear having a cam portion that is configured to engage the pawl and move the pawl to the disengaged position as the gear rotates from the first position to the second position; and a spring for biasing the hold open lever into the second position as the gear is rotated into the second position, the spring being operably coupled to the pawl at one end and the hold open lever at a second end.
