Nissan Altima (L32) 2007-2012 Service Manual: Power supply and ground circuit

SUNROOF MOTOR ASSEMBLY

 Description

• BCM supplies power.

• CPU is integrated in sunroof motor assembly.

• Tilts up/down & slides open/close by sunroof switch operation.

• In order to close sunroof lid certainly with the signal from combination meter at the time of high speed run, the sunroof motor torque at the time of tilt-down operation is controlled.

Component Function Check

1. CHECK SUNROOF MOTOR FUNCTION

Do tilt up/down & slide open/close functions operate normally with sunroof switch? Is the inspection result normal? YES >> Sunroof motor assembly is OK.

NO >> Refer to RF-12, "SUNROOF MOTOR ASSEMBLY : Diagnosis Procedure".
