DRIVE MOTOR
REMOVAL
CAUTION: The sunroof system is timed from the
factory so that the motor shuts off automatically
when the sunroof window reaches a certain posi-
tion. Extreme care must be taken when removing
the motor, timing may be thrown off causing possi-
ble damage to the sunroof system. Anytime the
motor is removed from the sunroof assembly the
sunroof glass panel must be in the FULLY CLOSED
POSITION or the unit will be out of timing. The drive
motor cannot be reset to the park position after
being removed.CAUTION: The sunroof motor should only be pow-
ered through the vehicle battery and sunroof wire
harness. Applying power to the sunroof motor leads
will cause failure of the control module.
(1) Move glass panel to the fully closed position.
(2) Remove the A-pillar trim. (Refer to 23 - BODY/
INTERIOR/A-PILLAR TRIM - REMOVAL)
(3) Remove the B-pillar upper trim. (Refer to 23 -

(10) Disconnect the drive motor wire harness con-
nectors (Fig. 3).
(11) Remove drive motor fasteners and remove
motor from the sunroof housing.
INSTALLATION
(1) Ensure that the window is in the fully closed
position before mounting the motor. If motor fails
with the window in the open position the sunroof
glass panel timing will have to be timed. The new
motor comes in the fully closed position and with a
gage for setting cable timing. (Refer to 23 - BODY/
SUNROOF/GLASS PANEL - ADJUSTMENTS - TIM-
ING)
(2) Place drive motor into position on the sunroof
housing and install fasteners.
