The sunroof motor/actuator is located between the headliner and the roof structure, while the sunroof switch is located above the rearview mirror. The sunroof motor/actuator supplies voltage to the sunroof switch through the sunroof switch open and close signal circuits. It also supplies ground to the sunroof switch through the switch low reference circuit. When the roof open or closed switch is pressed, ground is applied through the switch contacts and the appropriate signal circuit to the motor/actuator. The motor/actuator then internally applies battery positive voltage and ground to the appropriate circuits of the reversible power sunroof motor in order to move the sunroof glass panel to the open, close, or vent position.
• | Because of the accessibility of the sunroof switch, perform the sunroof switch component test before beginning the circuit/system testing. |
• | A short to B+ on one of the sunroof switch signal circuits will open the switch. This fault is not covered in the circuit/system testing. |

⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the following ground circuits for an open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, replace the sunroof motor/actuator. |
• | Sunroof switch low reference circuit terminal B |
• | Sunroof motor/actuator harness connector ground circuit terminal 1 |
• | Terminal D sunroof switch open signal |
• | Terminal E sunroof switch close signal |
⇒ | If the roof moved in all directions, replace the sunroof switch. |
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance. |
⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, repair the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. |
⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, repair the accessory voltage circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. |
• | Sunroof switch open signal terminal D |
• | Sunroof switch close signal terminal E |
⇒ | If less than the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit test normal, replace the motor/actuator. |
⇒ | If less than infinite ohms of resistance, replace the sunroof switch. |
⇒ | If greater than 5 ohms of resistance, replace the sunroof switch. |
⇒ | If less than infinite ohms of resistance, replace the sunroof switch. |
⇒ | If greater than 5 ohms of resistance, replace the sunroof switch. |
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
