2006 DODGE RAM SRT-10 roof rack

POSSIBLE CAUSE OF WIND NOISE
Moldings standing away from body surface can catch wind and whistle.
Gaps in sealed areas behind overhanging body flanges can cause wind-rushing sounds.
Misaligned movable components.
Missing or improperly installed plugs in pillars.
Weld burn through holes.
Improperly installed roof rack cross bars.
STANDARD PROCEDURE
BODY LUBRICATION
All mechanisms and linkages should be lubricated when necessary. This will maintain ease of operation and provide
protection against rust and excessive wear. The weatherstrip seals should be lubricated to prolong their life as well
as to improve door sealing.
All applicable exterior and interior vehicle operating mechanisms should be inspected and cleaned. Pivot/sliding con-
tact areas on the mechanisms should then be lubricated.
1. When necessary, lubricate the operating mechanisms with the specifiedlubricants.
2. Apply silicone lubricant to a clothand wipe it on door seals to avoid over-spray that can soil passenger’s cloth-
ing.
3. Before applying lubricant, the component should be wiped clean. After lubrication, any excess lubricant should be
removed.
4. The hood latch, latch release mechanism, latch striker, and safety latch should be lubricated periodically.
5. The door lock cylinders should be lubricated twice each year (preferably autumn and spring).
Spray a small amount of lock cylinder lubricant directly into the lock cylinder.
Apply a small amount to the key and insert it into the lock cylinder.
Rotate it to the locked position and then back to the unlocked position several times.
Remove the key. Wipe the lubricant from it with a clean cloth to avoid soiling of clothing.
HEAT STAKING
1. Remove trim panel.
2. Bend or move the trim panel components at the heat staked joints. Observethe heat staked locations and/or
component seams for looseness.
3. Heat stake the components.
a. If the heat staked or component seam location is loose, hold the two components tightly together and using
a soldering gun with a flat tip, melt the material securing the components together. Do not over heat the
affected area, damage to the exterior of the trim panel may occur.
b. Iftheheatstakedmaterialisbrokenormissing,useahotglueguntoapplynewmaterialtotheareatobe
repaired. The panels that are being heat staked must be held together whiletheapplyingtheglue.Oncethe
new material is in place, it may be necessary to use a soldering gun to melt the newly applied material. Do
not over heat the affected area, damage to the exterior of the trim panel mayoccur.
4. Allow the repaired area to cool and verify the repair.
5. Install trim panel.
BUZZ, SQUEAK & RATTLE
Buzz, Squeak & Rattles (BSR) may be caused by any one or more of the followingand may be corrected as indi-
cated:
Loose fasteners should be tightened to specifications.
Damaged or missing clips should be replaced.
Damaged trim panels should be replaced.
Incorrectly installed trim panels should be reinstalled properly.

10. Apply a 13 mm (1/2 in.) high and 10 mm (3/8 in.)
wide bead of urethane around the perimeter of
windshield(2).Atthetop,applythebead7mm
(1/4 in.) inboard from the glass edge. On the
other three sides apply the bead 14 mm (0.55 in.)
inboard from the glass edge.
11. Install the a-pillar trim (2) (Refer to 23 - BODY/IN-
TERIOR/A-PILLAR TRIM - INSTALLATION).
12. With the aid of a helper, position the windshield
(2) over the windshield opening. Align the refer-
ence marks at the bottom of the windshield to the
support spacers (3).
13. Slowly lower windshield glass (2) to the fence
opening guiding the lower corners into proper
position. Beginning at the bottom and continuing
to the top, push glass (2) onto fence along the
A-Pillars. Push windshield (2) inward to the fence
at the bottom corners.
14. Push windshield (2) upward, setting the wind-
shieldtoroofgapto1.5mm(0.06in.)to3mm
(0.12 in.) and ratchet up the adjustable support
brackets.
15. Using clean water, lightly mist the support spacers
(3).
16. Clean excess urethane from exterior with MOPAR
Super Clean or equivalent.

The power sunroof system allows the sunroof to be opened, closed or placed in the vent position electrically by
actuating a switch in the overhead console. The sunroof system receives battery feed through a fuse in the Power
Distribution Center (PDC). The sunroof will operate normally with the keyin any position while the Accessory Delay
system is active.
The sunroof glass panel tilts upward at the rear for ventilation and slidesrearward under the roof when open. The
panel seals flush with the roof in the closed position to eliminate wind noise. The sunroof includes a manual-sliding
sunshade to cover the deep-tinted glass panel.
In addition to the standard power sunroof operation, this vehicle offers several additional features. There is an
express (one-touch) opening and closing feature as well as Excessive Force Limitation (EFL). The EFL function
detects obstacles trapped between the glass and the vehicle roof during a closing motion. Upon sensing an obstacle
the EFL function will reverse direction of the glass to allow removal of theobstacle.
The main components of thepower sunroof system are:
The motor/module assembly
The power sunroof glass and frame assembly
The power sunroof switch
The manual-sliding sunshade
OPERATION
This vehicle has a vent, tilt and slide power sunroof system with express (one-touch) open and closing feature. The
sunroof system receives constant battery feed through a fuse in the Power Distribution Center (PDC). The sunroof
will operate normally with the key in any position while the Accessory Delay system is active. If the sunroof is mov-
ing when the key is turned to the START position (crank engine), all motionsstop until the key is released, then the
previously requested sunroof motion will resume. The sunroof will also complete a requested motion if the Acces-
sory Delay system goes inactivewhile the motion is in progress.
A combination push-button and rocker switch module mounted in the overhead console controls sunroof operation.
The sunroof switch is a rocker design with a push button in the center of the two halves of the rocker. Pressing the
rocker towards the front of the car commands the sunroof closed. Pressing the rocker towards the rear of the car
commands the sunroof open. Pressing the center push button commands the sunroof up into the vent position
(Rear of sunroof glass raises above the vehicle roof with glass still covering the sunroof opening). All switch com-
mands operate with the glass startingin any position. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/POWER TOP/SWITCH - OPER-
ATION) for additional information.
An electronic control system, integralto the motor/module assembly, provides the express open and close functions.
Pressing the
openorcloseend of the rocker switch moves the sunroof glass panel to the full open or fullclosed
position, respectively. During express closing, anytime an obstacle is detected in the way of the glass, the motor will
stop and reverse travel to avoid pinching an occupant’s finger, ice in the track, etc. This function is called Excessive
Force Limitation (EFL). There are two methods of overriding the EFL function.
1. When three EFL events occur without the glass being allowed to fully close, the next close attempt will only
move while the close switch is continuously actuated. This allows the sunrooftobeforcedclosedifmultipleclose
attempts fail.
2. If the sunroof close switch is continuously actuated during an EFL event, through the reversal, and during a two
second wait time, then continuing to hold the close switch will cause the roof to move towards close with the EFL
protection disabled. This allows the sunroof to be forced closed if it is known that a reversal will occur.
While in EFL override, the closing motion will cease if the sunroof switch is released at any time.
