An anti-pinch system for a vehicle opening device, such as a window regulator, that includes a pressure sensitive resistive coupler located between a gear and a damper plate in the vehicle opening device. When the load is increased on the vehicle opening device, the resistive coupler compresses, altering its electrical resistance. An electrical circuit runs through the resistive coupler, and the circuits resistance is measured. A controller for the device's motor is operable to adjust the velocity of the motor based upon changes in resistance in the damper. Preferably, the controller compares changes in measured resistance to an expected change in resistance based upon the opening device's position to determine whether a pinch condition has occurred.
