WIND DEFLECTOR
Check that the wind deflector (1) moves freely within the sunroof unit
assembly while manually pressing down and releasing. If a malfunc-
tion is detected, remove and visually check the deflector for damage,
deteriorated components, or foreign objects within mechanism.
Check to determine if a sufficient amount of grease has been applied
to the pivot areas for non-binding operation, if not add grease as
required. If it is damaged, replace it with a new one. If no damage is
found, reinstall it properly.

LINK ASSEMBLY AND WIRE
NOTE:
Before replacing a suspect part, make sure it is the source of noise being experienced.
1. Check link to determine if coated film has peeled off to such an extent that substrate is visible. Check also
to determine if link is the source of noise. If it is, replace it.
2. Visually check to determine if a sufficient amount of grease has been applied to wire or rail groove of the
sunroof unit assembly. If not, add grease as required.
3. Check wire for any damage or deterioration. If any damage is found, replace sunroof unit assembly.
WEATHERSTRIP
1. Visually check weatherstrip for dam age, deterioration, or deformation.
• Open glass lid assembly enough to inspect front edge of weatherstrip.
• Tilt up glass lid assembly fully to in spect sides and rear edge of weatherstrip.
If any area of the weatherstrip is found to be damaged, replace the glass lid assembly. Refer to RF-22," Removal and Installation " .
2. Check for leakage around glass lid. • Close glass lid fully.
• Pour water around surface to determine area of concern.
- For gaps or misalignment, adjust glass lid to specifications. Refer to RF-27, " Fitting Adjustment " .
- For damaged sealing surfaces, either replace glass lid RF-22, " Removal and Installation " , or repair the
