Roof Opening Sliding Glass Panel
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Lincoln MKX and 2010 Ford Edge. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The roof opening panel assembly uses an integrated motor and module to operate the roof opening panel sliding glass. The roof opening sliding glass panel can be opened or closed by activating the roof opening panel control switch. The roof opening sliding glass panel can be vented by activating the TILT control switch. The roof opening panel control switch and TILT switch each provide ground signals to the glass panel motor to request the desired mode of operation. For additional information about the roof opening sliding glass panel operation, refer to ROOF OPENING PANEL .
The shade motor and sliding glass panel motor have 3 thermal operating modes:
- Full function: In their fully functioning state, the motors allow all normal operations of the shades and glass.
- Reduced function: If either motor begins to overheat, it will enter a reduced function mode. No express operation is possible and it will allow open or close motion in steps of 50.8 mm (2 in).
- No function: Excessive heating causes no function mode. The motor will not operate in the close direction, but will open in steps of 50.8 mm (2 in). Once the open position is reached, the motor shuts itself down until it is sufficiently cooled.
