Sunroof will not open or close
E38, E46
Complaints:
Sliding/tilt sunroof (SHD) will not open or close.
Cause:
A safety function for ensuring activation of the anti-trap function circuit in the SHD module
has triggered legitimately or reacted over-sensitively in modules with SW 3.1. Initialisation
(position detection) of the sunroof is no longer effective.
Affected vehicles:
E38 with sliding/tilt sunroof (option 401) or glass sunroof (option 403)
E46 with glass sunroof (option 403)
Manufacturing period: December 1998 to August 2000
Procedure:
In case of customer complaint, carry out "reinitialisation".
The "reinitialisation" procedure is carried out as follows: press the SHD switch to "raise"
and hold until the end position is reached; keep the switch pressed for a further two
seconds in this position.
The anti-trap function circuit is not active during "reinitialisation".
If the problem has not been rectified on completion of "reinitialisation", replace the sunroof
drive unit together with the module. Please refer to Repair Instructions: "Removing and
installing / replacing drive with gears for sliding/tilt sunroof".
