Connect the No. 1 (YELI terminal to body ground
with a jumper wire, then turn the ignition switch ON
(ll). The moonroof should open.
. lf the moonroot opens, check the switch.
. lf the moonroot does not open, check for:
- an open in the YEL wire.
- faulty moonroof open relay.
- faulty moonroof close relay,
- poor ground (G401, G402).- fa u lty open/close switch.
Connect the No. 3 (YELnED) terminal to body ground
with a jumper wire. then turn the ignition switch ON
(ll). The moonroof should close.
. lf the moonroof closes. check the switch.
. lf the moonrool does not close, check for:
- an open in the YEURED or GRN/RED wire'
- faulty moonroof close relaY.
- faulty moonroot oPen relaY.
- faulty tilvclose switch.
Connect the No. 2 (BLU) terminal to body ground with
a jumper wire, then turn the ignition switch oN (ll).
The moonroof should tilt up.
. lf the moonroof tilts up, checkthe switch.
. lf the moonroof does nottilt up, checkfor:
- an open in the BLU wire.
- taulty tilvclose switch
Connect the No. 3 (YEURED) terminal to bodY ground
with a jumper wire, then turn the ignition switch ON
(ll), The moonroof should tilt down.
lf the moonroof does not tilt down, the open/close
relay must be taulty.
Check for continuity to body ground on the No. 4
{BLK}terminal.
There should be continuity.
. lf there is continuity, check the switch
. lf there is no continuity, check for:
- an open in the BLK wire
- poor ground (G401, G402).

Gontrol Unit Input Test
SRS components are located in this area. Review the SRS component locations, precautions, and procedures in the SRSsection (24) before performing repairs or service.
1. Remove the driver's dashboard lower cover and knee bolster (see section 20).
2. Disconnect the l4P connector from the control unit.
3. Inspect the connector and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contact.
lf the terminals are bent, loose, or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system.lf the terminals look OK, make the following inpul tests at the connecror.- lf any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system,- lf all the input tests prove OK, the control unit must be faulty; replace it.
