Moonroof Control Malfunction

[non_interleaved]

I have a 2001 330xi and the moonroof seems to have just started misbehaving. It seems that the controls have all become “remapped” (for the lack of a better word). Both the “close” and the “partial open” functions seem to be doing the “partial open” thing, and the “open” position doesn’t seem to be doing anything.

Anyone experience a similar problem and know if there is an easy solution short of taking the thing into the shop? FWIW, I am no longer under warranty.

Perhaps someone knows how to open that panel as well? If I could get in there and take a look, perhaps something is misaligned?

you don't have to take it apart. Just go to your car hold the sunroof button by pressing/pushing it IN for a little while; this will put it in some kind of reinitialization mode; try it again it should get back to its default setting......This procedure is in your manual.

good luck

This happened to my wife's 03 325i 3 months after we brought the car.

If it's under warranty, just take it back to the dealer.

hence my free advise to press button and to read the free manual which came with the car!

That worked like a charm. Thanks!
