Roof Opening Panel Operating System

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Ford Edge. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The accessory delay relay (non-serviceable) in the BCM controls a voltage signal to the roof opening panel sliding glass motor and roof opening panel shield motor allowing the motors to respond to roof opening panel control switch commands. The BCM activates the accessory delay relay whenever the ignition is in the RUN or ACC positions, or when the ignition is changed from RUN or ACC to the OFF position.

The roof opening panel sliding glass motor and roof opening panel shield motor receive voltage from BCM fuse F27 (30A) and ground from G382 for motor movement.

The roof opening panel switch is attached to the overhead console but can be serviced separate from the overhead console. The switches apply a ground signal to the motors depending on the switch and switch position and the motors respond accordingly. The roof opening panel switch receives ground from G382.
