sunroof has a mind of its own

excuse the kindhearted title

this hasn't been happening recently as i seldom use the sunroof this time of year, but in the summer, the sunroof would intermittently re-open/tilt when closing it.

not a huge deal, only kind of annoying

suggestions?

Re: sunroof has a mind of its own

i would suspect electric connections

it's on the top of the car, so if similar to us, it should have a brain somewhere there too :P

Re: sunroof has a mind of its own

What year is the car? Your left panel says you have a 2003, but that's no 03 in the video.




Try reprogram:

could have been mechanical (like something obstructing, then it stops or open - like your windows do to not chop your fingers if they on the way)

or electronic (like ezone posted)
