Switch - Sunroof: Operation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Chrysler PT Cruiser. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The sunroof is electrically operated from two switches located on the windshield header, rearward of the map lamp. The "VENT" switch is a push button type switch and opens the sunroof to the vent position only. The other switch "OPEN/CLOSED" is a rocker type switch for opening and closing the sunroof. Pressing and releasing the open button once, the sunroof will express open and the wind deflector will raise. If the button is pressed a second time the sunroof will stop in that position. Pressing and holding the close button will close the sunroof. If the close button is released the sunroof will stop in that position.

The switch is grounded at on terminal and receives a 5 volt signal from the sunroof motor/module on the remaining three terminals. The switch pulls down the 5 volt reference voltage from the module signaling it to perform the desired function.
