Motor Synchronization (Timing)

If the sliding roof panel motor is removed from the vehicle, it must always be checked for synchronization before it is installed. The sliding roof panel motor is synchronized when the motor is cycled through one vent open to vent closed operation.

1. Connect sliding roof panel motor wiring connector to roof panel wiring connector.

NOTE: The roof sliding outer glass panel should be in the CLOSED position for synchronization.

2. Operate roof sliding panel switch to the vent open position until sliding roof panel motor stops.
3. Operate roof sliding panel switch to the closed position until sliding roof panel motor stops. Motor is now synchronized.
4. Install sliding roof panel motor.

NOTE: It may be necessary to rotate sliding roof panel motor slightly to engage drive splines when installing.
