Zusammenfassung:A power locking door handle with capacitive sensing is provided for heavy duty vehicles. The door handle includes a base surface mounted to the exterior of the vehicle door and a hand grip mounted or formed with the base. The handle may be a pull type or push button type. A power lock motor and printed circuit board with a capacitive sensor are sealed within the base. When an operator's hand is inserted between the hand grip and the base, the capacitive sensor sends a signal via the PCB to the motor to unlock the door latch. A key lock cylinder on the base overrides the lock motor if power to the motor is disabled.
