Sunroof / Moonroof Motor: Testing and Inspection








INSPECTION

PROTECTING MOTOR FROM OVERHEATING
In order to protect the sunroof motor from overheating from continuous motor operation, the sunroof ECU controls the Run-time and Cool-time of the motor as follows:
1. The Sunroof ECU detects the Run- time of motor
2. Motor can be operated continuously for the 1st run-time(120 ± 10sec.).
3. The continuous operation of motor stops after the 1st Run-time(120 ± 10sec.).
4. Then Motor is not operated for the 1st Cool-time(18 ± 2sec.).
5. Motor is operated for the 2nd Run-time(10 ± 2sec.) at the continued motor operation after 1st Cool-time(18 ± 2sec.)
6. The continuous operation of motor stops operating after the 2nd Run-time(120 ± 10sec.)
7. Motor is not operated for the 2nd Cool-time(18 ± 2sec.).
8. Motor repeats the 2nd run-time and 2nd cool-time at the continued motor operation.
A. In case that motor is not operated continuously, the run-time is increased.
B. The Run-Time of motor is initialized to "0" if the battery or fuse is reconnected after being disconnected, discharged or blown.
