Roof Opening Panel

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Mazda Tribute. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The roof opening panel is an electronically operated panel that can be opened or closed by the roof opening panel switch. Actuating the switch in either a forward or rearward motion supplies a ground to the roof opening panel module. The roof opening panel module supplies the power to the roof opening panel motor when the switch is depressed. The vent and softstop functions are controlled by the roof opening panel module and an internal roof position switch within the roof opening panel motor. These positions are obtained when an internal motor cam opens the roof position switch removing the ground from the switch.
