The sunroof and sunshade control modules supply each of the switch signal circuits with a 12-volt reference. When a switch is pressed the signal circuit is pulled low signaling the sunroof or sunshade open or close request. The modules determine the motor direction based on inputs received from the overhead console sunroof switches. When the modules reverse the polarity of the applied voltage, the motors reverse direction. Ignition voltage is supplied to the sunroof and sunshade modules. B+ is applied to the sunroof and sunshade control modules via the SUNROOF fuse.

A short to B+ on any of the sunroof or sunshade switch signal circuits may open the ground circuit in the switch.

⇒	If the sunshade does not express open, refer to Power Sunroof/Sunshade Express Feature Malfunction.

2. With the sunshade in the open position, press the sunshade close switch. The sunshade should close.

⇒	If the sunshade does not move, refer to Power Sunshade Malfunction.

3. With the sunshade in the open position and the sunroof in the closed position, press the sunroof open switch. The sunroof should open to the vent position.

⇒	If the sunroof does not open to the vent position, refer to Power Sunroof Malfunction.

4. With the sunroof in the vent position, press the sunroof open switch for 2 seconds. The sunroof should express open.

⇒	If the sunroof does not move, refer to Power Sunroof Malfunction.

⇒	If the sunroof does not express open, refer to Power Sunroof/Sunshade Express Feature Malfunction.

5. With the sunroof in the open position, press the sunroof close switch. The sunroof should close.

Important: Because of the accessibility of the sunroof switch, perform the sunroof/sunshade switch component test before beginning the Circuit/System Testing.

Power Sunroof Malfunction

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the sunroof control module.
2. Test for less than 5.0 ohms between the ground circuit terminal 6 and ground.

⇒	If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.

3. Verify that a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal 5 and ground.

⇒	If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal and the B+ circuit fuse is open, determine if the sunroof or sunshade control module is causing the fuse to open. Replace the appropriate module.

4. Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition circuit terminal 4 and ground.

⇒	If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ignition circuit for an open/high resistance.

5. Ignition OFF, connect the harness connector at the sunroof control module.
6. Disconnect the harness connector at the sunroof switch.
7. Test for less than 5.0 ohms between the ground circuit terminal 4 and ground.

⇒	If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.

Important: Apply ground to the module for no longer than 2 seconds at a time or the module could be damaged.

When performing the following tests, make sure the sunroof or sunshade is not at its end of travel position by switching the grounded jumper to the other signal circuit if the sunroof or sunshade did not move in one direction.
8. Ignition ON, momentarily install a 10-amp fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 5 and ground. The sunroof should move.

⇒	If the sunroof does not move, test the signal circuit for a short to ground, short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit test is normal, replace the sunroof control module.

9. Momentarily install a 10-amp fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 2 and ground. The sunroof should move.

⇒	If the sunroof does not move, test the signal circuit for a short to ground, short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit test is normal, replace the sunroof control module.

10. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the sunroof switch.

Power Sunshade Malfunction

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the sunshade control module.
2. Test for less than 5.0 ohms between the ground circuit terminal 6 and ground.

⇒	If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.

3. Verify that a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal 5 and ground.

⇒	If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal and the B+ circuit fuse is open, determine if the sunroof or sunshade control module is causing the fuse to open. Replace the appropriate module.

4. Ignition ON, test for 10 - 12.5 volts between the serial data circuit terminal 3 and ground.

⇒	If less than the specified range, test the serial data circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the sunroof control module.

⇒	If greater than the specified range, test the serial data circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the sunroof control module.
