Sunroof Motor/Actuator Initialization/Teach Process

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2008 GMC Yukon XL, 2008 GMC Yukon, 2008 Chevrolet Tahoe, 2008 Chevrolet Suburban, and 2008 Chevrolet Avalanche. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Perform the initialization/teach procedure any time:

By performing the initialization/teach procedure, the sunroof motor/actuator records the open vent stop position. The motor/actuator will then understand the other positions, closed and full open soft stop, and allow express and obstacle detection functions.

  1. Ensure that all electrical harness connectors are connected.
  2. Turn the ignition to ON.
  3. Completely close the sunroof window with the manual close switch.
  4. Press the sunroof vent switch to the vent open position until the sunroof window stops, and continue holding the switch for at least 10 seconds.
  5. IMPORTANT: The initialization/teach procedure is not complete if the battery and/or ignition power has been interrupted during the process.
    The Initialization/Teach Process must be restarted if the procedure is not carried out completely.
  6. Verify the operation of the sunroof in all positions.
