SLIDING ROOF: SLIDING ROOF SYSTEM: INITIALIZATION

SLIDING ROOF: SLIDING ROOF SYSTEM: INITIALIZATION

1. RESET SLIDING ROOF DRIVE GEAR (MOTOR)
NOTICE: The drive gear (motor) must be reset (pulse sensor's location must be set) when one of the following occurs: 1) the battery cable has been disconnected from the negative (-) battery terminal, 2) the drive gear connector is connected /disconnected, or 3) the sliding roof is replaced or installed / removed. If the drive gear is not reset, the AUTO function will not operate.

(a) The sliding roof AUTO operation and the jam protection function may not operate normally if the battery cable is disconnected / reconnected, the battery replaced or recharged. Initialize the sliding roof system using the method below.
(1) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(2) Press the CLOSE switch to activate the close operation. Fully close the roof and continue to press the CLOSE switch for approximately 2 seconds. When the sliding roof control ECU initialization is finished, the roof will automatically open and stop a few millimeters from the fully open position.
HINT: If the battery cable is disconnected, the sliding roof control ECU may not detect the position of the roof glass. If the sliding roof AUTO operation is still disabled even after the drive gear has been initialized, the Hall IC may be malfunctioning. The Hall IC is built into the drive gear and detects the roof glass position.
If the result is not as specified, replace the drive gear assembly (sliding roof control ECU).

2. INSPECT SLIDING ROOF FUNCTION Component Tests and General Diagnostics
HINT:
- If the jam protection function is not operating, reset the drive gear.
- If the AUTO operation function and jam protection function do not operate after the drive gear has been reset, replace the drive gear assembly (sliding roof control ECU).
