8. TROUBLESHOOTING WHEN THE SUN ROOF IS OUT OF CONTROL

1) The sun roof module could not control the sun roof’s status

a) The full open function key fails to work, or pressing the power switch (One Touch)

could not run the unit.

b) The sun roof could not be opened, or could not be fully closed and opened.

2) Analysis for the basic reasons

a) This occurs after replacing the battery when the sun roof is not at its initial position.

b) After the sun roof module is powered on and its plug is pulled out when the sun roof

is running.

c) The sun roof unit controller could not restore to its normal position.

d) The power supply plug of the sun roof is pulled out when the sun roof is running.

3) Troubleshooting: Restart the sun roof module to restore its initial memory

a) Run the sun roof glass to the full tilt position and then keep pressing the tilt button

continually over 15 seconds to restore.

b) Make sure that when the full open function key could normally start, the SCU

controller could also normally start and restore its initial position.

9. DETAILED SOLUTIONS FOR THE PROBLEMS

9.1 The sun roof loses its initial position:

Definition: When the sun roof could not be opened or closed normally or closed to the normal
position as well as the sun roof could not perform its original movement course. When the
failure of sun roof is like this, its movement procedure of it will become disorder.

See “8. Troubleshooting when the sun roof is out of control” for analyzing, detecting and
disposal methods

9.2 The sun roof assembly leaks water:

Definition: Whenever water is present in the interior trim of the vehicle.

Analyze and detect: Check the clearance between the sun roof glass and the roof hole, and
check the status of flow guiding water pipe and the water guiding system.

Solutions: 1. Refer to the procedures in “replacing the sun roof glass” to re-install the sun

roof glass and make sure the clearance between the sun roof glass and the roof
hole is in its normal range.

2.

Re-adjust the connecting status of the four distribution pipes to make sure they
are water-tight.

3.

Check the water guiding system for damages and replace it.

9.3 The sun roof produces abnormal sounds:

Definition: Whenever the sun roof produces abnormal sounds when running.

Analyze and detect: Check the sun roof for misalignment produced by the manual assembly
and the clearance between the glass and the roof hole, check if the sun roof motor produces
abnormal sounds, check if the mouldings damage and rub the rail, and then determine the
reasons producing abnormal sounds.

Solutions: 1. Refer to the procedures in “replacing the sun roof glass” to re-install the sun

roof glass and make sure the clearance between the sun roof glass and the roof
hole is in its normal range.

2.

Replacing the motor producing abnormal sounds.

3.

Replacing with new mouldings.
