Sunroof / Moonroof: Description and Operation

POWER TOP-SUNROOF

WARNING: KEEP FINGERS AND OTHER BODY PARTS OUT OF SUNROOF OPENING AT ALL TIMES.

The power sunroof system allows the sunroof to be opened, closed or placed in the vent position electrically by actuating a switch in the overhead console. The sunroof system receives battery feed through a fuse in the Integrated Power Module (IPM), when the ignition switch is in the RUN and ACCESSORY positions. The sunroof will continue to operate normally with the key in the OFF position or with the key removed while the Accessory Delay System is active.

The sunroof glass panel tilts upward at the rear for ventilation and slides rearward under the roof when open. The panel seals flush with the roof in the closed position to eliminate wind noise. The sunroof includes a manual-sliding sunshade to cover the deep-tinted glass panel.

Sun Roof Assembly:

The main components of the power sunroof system are:
- The motor/module assembly
- The power sunroof glass
- The U-Frame assembly
- The power sunroof switch
- The manual-sliding sunshade

This vehicle has a vent, tilt and slide power sunroof system with express (one-touch) open feature. The sunroof system receives battery feed through a fuse in the Integrated Power Module (IPM), when the ignition switch is in the RUN and ACCESSORY positions. The sunroof will operate normally with the key in any position while the Accessory Delay system is active.

The sunroof is electrically operated from a switch located in the overhead console. The switch is a combination rocker/push button style design that will operate the sunroof. When pressing and releasing the open button once, the sunroof will express open to the comfort stop and the wind deflector will raise. If the button is pressed a second time, the sunroof will continue to open to full travel unless the button is released, at which time it will stop in that position. Pressing and holding the close button will close the sunroof. If the close button is released before the glass fully closes, the sunroof will stop in that position. Pressing and holding the vent button will cause the sunroof glass panel to tilt upward at the rear into the "VENT" position.
