Sliding Roof Initialization

POWER
Power is supplied to the sunroof motor assembly by the power window relay. When the ignition switch is turned ON, the relay is energized by the smart entrance control unit. The power circuit is protected by the circuit breaker-1. The sunroof motor assembly is grounded through body grounds M68, M105 and M130. When the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, the sunroof will still operate for up to approximately 15 minutes unless the driver's door is opened. (Delayed power operation.)

NOTE: When the battery or sunroof motor harness connector is disconnected during service, the sunroof will not operate properly.

Procedure for resetting motor memory:
From any sunroof position (full open, partially open, closed, partially vented, and vented), push and hold the button in the forward position until the sunroof vents in the Full-Up position. This resets the sunroof motor memory and now the sunroof will operate correctly.

TILT AND SLIDE OPERATION
The sunroof is controlled by the sunroof switch. With the sunroof in closed position, depressing UP/CLOSE switch will tilt rear of sunroof up. The sunroof will stop when the switch is released, or when the sunroof reaches its maximum tilt position.
The sunroof will tilt down when in tilt up position and DOWN/OPEN switch is depressed. The sunroof will stop when switch is released, or when sunroof is fully closed.
With sunroof in closed position, pressing DOWN/OPEN switch will cause sunroof to slide open. The sunroof will slide open until switch is released or until it is all the way open. The sunroof will close when in open position, and UP/CLOSE switch is depressed. The sunroof will slide until switch is released, or when sunroof is fully closed.
All automatic operations in sunroof are controlled by internal limit switches located in sunroof motor assembly.
