Dual Pane Sunroof Or Sunshade Override Position Calibration





DUAL PANE SUNROOF OR SUNSHADE OVERRIDE POSITION CALIBRATION

SLIDING GLASS

The sliding glass panel motor stalls when the glass reaches the fully vented position and the electronic motor module learns that position (hard stop), then counts the number of motor rotations to know where the fully closed and fully open positions of the glass are located. The following procedure causes a previously calibrated and properly operating electronic motor module to relearn the fully vented motor stall position.

1. Be certain electrical system voltage is at or above 12.5 volts.
2. Be certain the key is in the ignition switch and the switch is in the ON position.
3. Be certain the power sunshade is open at least beyond the back of the sliding glass panel opening.
4. Depress and hold the VENT push button of the sunroof switch until the sliding glass panel is in the fully vented position or until the motor will not drive the glass any further towards the fully vented position.
5. Open the driver side front door.
6. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
7. Within 2 seconds, turn the ignition switch back to the ON position.
8. Within 2 seconds, depress and hold the VENT push button of the sunroof switch for about ten seconds. At the end of ten seconds, the motor will try to drive the sliding glass panel to the fully vented position. Once motor stall is detected the electronic module will write that stall position to memory as the new glass position.
9. Verify sliding glass panel motor operation by cycling the glass to fully opened, fully closed, fully vented, then fully closed again.

SUNSHADE

The sunshade motor stalls when the shade reaches the fully closed position and the electronic motor module learns that position (hard stop), then counts the number of motor rotations to know where the mid-opened and fully opened positions of the shade are located. The following procedure causes a previously calibrated and properly operating electronic motor module to relearn the fully closed motor stall position.

1. Be certain electrical system voltage is at or above 12.5 volts.
2. Be certain the key is in the ignition switch and the switch is in the ON position.
3. Be certain the sliding glass panel is in the fully closed position.
4. Depress and hold the CLOSE push button of the sunshade switch until the shade is in the fully closed position or until the motor will not drive the shade any further towards the fully closed position.
5. Open the driver side front door.
6. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
7. Within 2 seconds, turn the ignition switch back to the ON position.
8. Within 2 seconds, depress and hold the CLOSE push button of the sunshade switch for about ten seconds. At the end of ten seconds, the motor will try to drive the shade to the fully closed position. Once motor stall is detected, the electronic module will write that stall position to memory as the new shade position.
9. Verify sunshade motor operation by cycling the shade to mid-opened, fully opened, then fully closed again.
