INITIALIZE SLIDING ROOF ECU (SLIDING ROOF DRIVE GEAR SUB-ASSEMBLY) (for Standard)
Note
Before starting this operation, make sure that the guide rails are not deformed and there is no foreign matter on the guide rails.
When the sliding roof glass sub-assembly or sliding roof drive cable sub-assembly is adjusted or removed/installed, or the sliding roof drive gear sub-assembly is replaced, the sliding roof ECU (sliding roof drive gear sub-assembly) must be initialized. If initialization is not performed, the auto operation, jam protection function, key-off operation, key-linked function, wireless transmitter-linked function and sliding roof open warning may not operate, or the sliding roof may move in reverse or become misaligned.
During initialization, do not apply a physical shock, such as opening/closing a door or driving the vehicle at 5 km/h (3 mph) or more, to the vehicle and do not perform any electrical operations.
Tech Tips
The sliding roof switch is installed in the roof console box assembly.
Perform initialization according to the table below.
Condition of Sliding Roof | Proceed to |
---|---|
Auto slide open and close/tilt up and down functions do not operate. | Procedure A |
Automatically moves, but the sliding roof glass does not stop at the correct position (misalignment occurs), or the sliding roof glass moves in the reverse direction during tilt down operation. | Procedure B |
Automatically moves, but the sliding roof glass moves in the reverse direction during slide close operation. | Procedure C |
Procedure A
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Fully close the sliding roof glass and release the sliding roof switch (roof console box assembly).
Press and hold the CLOSE or UP switch.
Note
Press and hold the CLOSE or UP switch until step 5 is completed. If the switch is released before step 5 is completed, repeat the operation from step 2.
The sliding roof glass performs the following operations: tilt up → 1 second pause → tilt down → slide open → slide closed.
After the roof glass stops in the fully closed position, release the switch.
Tech Tips
The initialization process ends when this operation completes.
Make sure that the sliding roof auto function operates normally.
Procedure B
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Press the UP switch to move the sliding roof glass to the fully tilted up position and then release the UP switch.
Tech Tips
If the sliding roof glass cannot be fully tilted up due to misalignment of the roof glass, press and hold the CLOSE switch until the sliding roof glass stops closing, and then press and hold the UP switch until the sliding roof glass stops tilting up.
If the sliding roof glass moves in the reverse direction while it is being closed, repeatedly tap the CLOSE switch at short intervals to fully close the sliding roof glass. When the sliding roof glass is fully closed, press the UP switch to move the sliding roof glass into the fully tilted up position.
Press and hold the UP switch again until the sliding roof glass completes the following operations: pause for approximately 10 seconds or more → tilt inching motion → 1 second pause → tilt down → slide open → slide closed.
Note
Press and hold the UP switch until step 4 is completed.
While performing step 3, if the UP switch is released before "pause for approximately 10 seconds or more" completes, start this step over.
While performing step 3, if the UP switch is released after "pause for approximately 10 seconds or more" completes, but above movements complete, perform procedure A to initialize the position of the sliding roof glass.
After the roof glass stops in the fully closed position, release the switch.
Tech Tips
The initialization process ends when this operation completes.
Make sure that the sliding roof auto function operates normally.
Procedure C
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Press and hold the CLOSE switch until the sliding roof glass completes the following operations: slide closed → move in the reverse direction → pause for approximately 10 seconds or more → slide closed → tilt up → 1 second pause → tilts down → slide open → slide closed.
Note
Press and hold the CLOSE switch until step 3 is completed.
While performing step 2, if the CLOSE switch is released before "pause for approximately 10 seconds or more" completes, start this step over.
While performing step 2, if the CLOSE switch is released after "pause for approximately 10 seconds or more" completes, but before the above movements complete, perform procedure A to initialize the position of the sliding roof glass.
After the roof glass stops in the fully closed position, release the switch.
Tech Tips
The initialization process ends when this operation completes.
Make sure that the sliding roof auto function operates normally.
INITIALIZE SLIDING ROOF ECU (SLIDING ROOF DRIVE GEAR SUB-ASSEMBLY) (for Glass Roof)
Note
Before starting this operation, make sure that the guide rails are not deformed and there is no foreign matter on the guide rails.
When the sliding roof glass sub-assembly or sliding roof drive cable sub-assembly is adjusted or removed/installed, or the sliding roof drive gear sub-assembly is replaced, the sliding roof ECU (sliding roof drive gear sub-assembly) must be initialized. If initialization is not performed, the auto operation, jam protection function, key-off operation and sliding roof open warning may not operate, or the sliding roof may move in reverse or become misaligned.
During initialization, do not apply a physical shock, such as opening/closing a door or driving the vehicle at 5 km/h (3 mph) or more, to the vehicle and do not perform any electrical operations.
Tech Tips
The sliding roof switch is installed in the roof console box assembly.
Perform initialization according to the table below.
Condition of Sliding Roof | Proceed to |
---|---|
Auto slide open and tilt up functions do not operate. | Procedure A |
Sliding roof moves in reverse direction during slide close (tilt down) operation. | Procedure B |
Sliding roof does not stop at the correct fully closed position during tilt down operation. | Procedure C |
Tech Tips
Before performing initialization, make sure that there is no foreign matter on the guide rails and the guide rails are not deformed.
Procedure A
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Press and hold the CLOSE or DOWN switch.
Note
Make sure not to release the switch during the initialization. If the switch is released, perform the initialization again.
Press and hold the CLOSE or DOWN switch until step 4 is completed. If the switch is released before step 4 is completed, repeat the operation from step 2.
The sliding roof glass starts sliding close operation and stops at the fully closed position.
After the sliding roof glass stops, check that the sliding roof glass opens again and stops at the correct fully closed position.
Tech Tips
The initialization process ends when this operation completes.
Make sure that the sliding roof auto function operates normally.
Procedure B
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Press and hold the CLOSE or DOWN switch until the following movements finish: slide closed (tilt down) → move in reverse direction → pause for approximately 10 seconds or more → slide closed (tilt down) → stop at the fully closed position.
Note
Press and hold the CLOSE or DOWN switch until step 3 is completed.
While performing step 2, if the CLOSE or DOWN switch is released before "pause for approximately 10 seconds or more" completes, start this step over.
While performing step 2, if the CLOSE or DOWN switch is released after "pause for approximately 10 seconds or more" completes, but before the above movements complete, perform procedure A to initialize the position of the sliding roof glass.
After the sliding roof glass stops, check that the sliding roof glass opens again and stops at the correct fully closed position.
Tech Tips
The initialization process ends when this operation completes.
Make sure that the sliding roof auto function operates normally.
Procedure C
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Press and hold the DOWN switch until the sliding roof glass stops and then release the switch.
Press and hold the DOWN switch until the following movements finish: pause for approximately 10 seconds or more → stops at the fully closed position.
