Moonroof Alignment - A How To With Pics

[mrecoolgar]

While having my headlliner out for recovering I decided to re-align the moonroof.
If your moonroof looks like this.

Then your motor will look like this.
The stop switch (blue) should be centered on the cam indent (orange.

Step 1 : Remove two phillips bolts to remove the motor assembly.
Step 2 : Remove the motor assembly.
Step 3 : Tap the moonroof switch until the switch centers on the cam.
Step 4 : Re-install the motor assembly.
Then your moonroof will look like this.

And your motor will look like this.

You can just turn the dial(backwards, I think) without removing the motor.

Put the moonroof in the correct "closed" position and center the dial on the indent by turning it backwards with your fingers.

I never knew that.
Thanks for the tip.
I'll have to give it a try.

Well, I tried to turn the cam by hand.
It did not work.
I stand correct that you have to pull the motor.

Can't you just pull the window crank out of a supercoupe and roll that sucker back?

I aligned my moonroof not long ago...I guess I forgot I had to take the motor off...I remember moving by hand though...Maybe after it was off?
