SUNROOF
GENERAL DESCRIPTION CONCERNING THE SUNROOFM1549021200223
Refer to circuit diagrams GROUP-90
Refer to configuration diagrams GROUP-80The following ECU affects the functions and control
of the sunroof.
Sunroof timer function
The ETACS-ECU enables opening and closing of the sunroof
for 30 seconds after the ignition is switched off.
During this timed operation, if the driver's door or passenger’s
door is opened, the sunroof timer function is deactivated from
that moment. FUNCTION CONTROL ECU
Sunroof timer function ETACS-ECU, sunroof motor assembly

INSPECTION PROCEDURE F-1: Sunroof: Sunroof does not operate.
.
CIRCUIT OPERATION
The sunroof motor assembly is energized
through fusible link (5) by the battery.
When the ignition switch (IG2) signal is on, the
sunroof motor assembly is ready to operate.
.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
Refer to circuit diagrams GROUP-90
Refer to configuration diagrams GROUP-80
The sunroof switch may be defective
The sunroof motor assembly may be defective

SYMPTOM PROCEDURES
SIMPLIFIED WIRING SYSTEM (SWS)54B-213
STEP 4. Check the ignition switch (IG2) circuit to the
sunroof motor assembly. Measure the voltage at sunroof
motor assembly connector D-04.
(1) Disconnect sunroof motor assembly connector D-04 and
measure the voltage available at the wiring harness side of
the connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Measure the voltage between terminal 2 and ground.
The voltage should measure approximately 12 volts
(battery positive voltage).
Q: Is the measured voltage approximately 12 volts (battery
positive voltage)?
YES : Go to Step 6.
NO : Go to Step 5.
STEP 5. Check the wiring harness between sunroof motor
assembly connector D-04 (terminal 2) and ignition switch
(IG2).

SIMPLIFIED WIRING SYSTEM (SWS)54B-214
NOTE: Also check junction block connectors C-215 and C-205
for loose, corroded, or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed
back in the connector. If junction block connector C-215 or
C-205 is damaged, repair or replace the damaged compo-
nent(s) as described in GROUP 00E, Harness Connector
Inspection P.00E-2.
Q: Is the wiring harness between sunroof motor assembly
connector D-04 (terminal 2) and the ignition switch (IG2)
in good condition?
YES : No action is necessary and testing is complete.
NO : The wiring harness may be damaged or the
connector(s) may have loose, corroded or damaged
terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Repair the wiring harness as necessary. Check that
the sunroof works normally.
STEP 6. Check the ground circuit to the sunroof motor
assembly. Measure the resistance at sunroof motor
assembly connector D-04.
(1) Disconnect sunroof motor assembly connector D-04 and
measure the resistance available at the wiring harness side
of the connector.
(2) Measure the resistance value between terminal 5 and
ground.
The resistance should be 2 ohms or less.
Q: Is the measured resistance 2 ohms or less?
YES : Go to Step 8.
NO : Go to Step 7.
