Pinpoint Test C: The Roof Opening Panel Leaks

  1. C1 CHECK THE ROOF OPENING PANEL OPERATION 
    • Cycle the roof opening panel glass from the full-open position to the full-closed position.
    • Check the roof opening panel glass adjustment. REFER to ROOF OPENING PANEL ALIGNMENT .
    • Does the roof opening panel glass operate smoothly, close tightly and meet general adjustment specifications? 
  2. C2 CHECK THE ROOF OPENING PANEL WEATHERSTRIP 
    • Actuate the roof opening panel glass to the full-open position.
    • NOTE: The weatherstrip has a bonded butt joint located on the passenger side or rear edge. This is not a defect. Inspect the roof opening panel weatherstrip for cuts, tears, gouges and creases.
    • Is the roof opening panel weatherstrip damaged? 
  3. C3 CHECK THE ROOF OPENING PANEL REAR TROUGH AND TROUGH GUIDES 
      NOTE: The rear trough should travel back and forth smoothly with the roof opening panel glass.
    • Check the rear trough and trough guides for proper attachment and function.
    • Does the rear trough operate correctly? 
      • Yes  : GO to  C4.
      • No  : INSTALL a new roof opening panel assembly. REFER to ROOF OPENING PANEL .
  4. C4 CHECK THE ROOF OPENING PANEL DRAIN TUBES 
      NOTE: Drain hoses can be viewed with a flashlight by removing the headliner lace around the inside opening and gently pulling down on the headliner.
      NOTE: On some vehicles the trim lace has been replaced by Velcro® style attachments. Gain access to the roof opening panel frame drain tubes.
    • Are the drain tubes correctly positioned and properly attached. 
      • Yes  : GO to  C5.
      • No  : ADJUST or ATTACH the drain tube(s). GO to  C5.
  5. C5 CHECK THE ROOF OPENING PANEL DRAIN TUBES FLOW 
    NOTE: Drain hoses must flow downhill and can not be pinched or restricted by the headliner or any other trim components.
    • Open the roof opening panel.
    • Slowly  pour water into the trough area and make sure that the same amount of water exits the vehicle at the bottom of the A and C pillars.
    • Does the water properly drain through each of the drain tubes? 
      • Yes  : TAPE off the roof opening panel and INSPECT other areas of the vehicle that may cause water leaks to enter the roof area.
      • No  : CLEAR obstruction(s) with compressed air. REPEAT test. If obstruction is not clear, LOWER the headliner and INSPECT drain tube(s) for correct routing, pinches or restrictions. REPAIR as necessary.
