The roof opening panel assembly uses an integrated motor and module to operate the roof opening panel. The roof opening panel motor and module are installed new as an assembly. The roof opening panel is an electronically operated glass panel that can be opened, closed or tilted by the roof opening panel switch. Actuating the switch in either a forward or rearward motion supplies a ground to the roof opening panel motor/module. The roof opening panel has an express open feature that is activated when the switch is momentarily pressed to the double detent OPEN SWITCH position. This function is controlled by the roof opening panel motor/module.

The roof opening panel motor must be initialized when repairs are carried out on any part of the roof opening panel system, including: whenever the roof opening panel motor has been removed from the roof opening panel system, the roof opening panel glass has been removed from the roof opening panel system, the roof opening panel assembly has been removed from the vehicle, a new roof opening panel motor has been installed, a new roof opening panel glass has been installed, or a new roof opening panel assembly has been installed.

Inspection and Verification

  1. Verify the customer concern by operating the system.
  2. Visually inspect for obvious signs of mechanical or electrical damage.

Normal Operation

When the roof opening panel glass is completely closed, it is flush with the roof panel.

Possible Causes

  1. Incorrect roof opening panel adjustment.
  2. Poorly fitting roof opening panel seal/weatherstrip.
  3. Incorrect installation of the roof opening panel and motor/module.
  4. Incorrect curvature of the air deflector.

If the roof opening panel is no longer noise, the system is operating correctly. The concern may have been caused by an incorrectly installed roof opening panel motor.

Pinpoint Test E: The Roof Opening Panel Does Not Open Or Close

The roof opening panel motor must be initialized when repairs are carried out on any part of the roof opening panel system, including: whenever the roof opening panel motor has been removed from the roof opening panel system, the roof opening panel glass has been removed from the roof opening panel system, the roof opening panel assembly has been removed from the vehicle, a new roof opening panel motor has been installed, a new roof opening panel glass has been installed, or a new roof opening panel assembly has been installed. Refer to ROOF OPENING PANEL MOTOR INITIALIZATION .

The roof opening panel uses a integrated motor and module to operate the roof opening panel. A new roof opening panel motor/module is installed as an assembly.

The roof opening panel motor/module provides ground to the roof opening panel switch through circuit 1173 (BN/OG). When the roof opening panel switch is pressed to the CLOSE position, a ground signal is sent to the roof opening panel motor/module through circuit 1175 (TN/RD), which causes the roof opening panel to close. When the roof opening panel switch is pressed to the OPEN position, a ground signal is sent to the roof opening panel motor/module through circuit 691 (DB), which causes the roof opening panel to open.

  1. Open in circuits 2086 (RD/LB), 1205 (BK), 1173 (BN/OG), 691 (DB) or 1175 (TN/RD).
  2. Inoperative roof opening panel switch.
  3. Inoperative roof opening panel motor/module assembly.
  4. Inoperative accessory delay relay.
  5. Roof opening panel motor not initialized.

Pinpoint Test F: The roof opening panel does not open or close in vent position

The roof opening panel motor must be initialized when repairs are carried out on any part of the roof opening panel system, including: whenever the roof opening panel motor has been removed from the roof opening panel system, the roof opening panel glass has been removed from the roof opening panel system, the roof opening panel assembly has been removed from the vehicle, a new roof opening panel motor has been installed, a new roof opening panel glass has been installed, or a new roof opening panel assembly has been installed. Refer to ROOF OPENING PANEL MOTOR INITIALIZATION .

The roof opening panel uses a integrated motor and module to operate the roof opening panel. A new roof opening panel motor/module is installed as an assembly.

The roof opening panel motor/module receives voltage from the accessory delay relay through circuit 2086 (RD/LB) when the key is in the ACC or RUN position. The roof opening panel motor/module provides ground to the roof opening panel switch through circuit 1173 (BN/OG). When the roof opening panel switch is pressed to the TILT position, a ground signal is sent to the roof opening panel motor/module through circuit 1174 (WH/RD), which causes the roof opening panel to open to the tilt position. When the roof opening panel switch is pressed to the CLOSE position, a ground signal is sent to the roof opening panel motor/module through circuit 1175 (TN/RD), which causes the roof opening panel to close.

  1. Open in circuits 1174 (WH/RD) or 1175 (TN/RD).
  2. Inoperative roof opening panel switch.
  3. Inoperative roof opening panel motor/module assembly.
