- The Sunroof Opening Position Switch (SOPS) (3) is aligned to the drive cables. The switch comes from the factory set to the window panel CLOSED position. A position lock pin (1) has been installed on the top of the switch. The pin (1) must remain until after the installation of the actuator and of the switch. The lock pin locks the drive gears in place and must be removed before operation of the sunroof module.
- If you reuse a Sunroof Opening Position Switch, place the sunroof window panel in the CLOSED position. Install the sunroof timing pins J 41718 . See Special Tools and Equipment . Install a position lock pin, or install 2 wires, such as the ends of a paper clip, then remove the SOPS from the sunroof module. The SOPS timing will be lost if you do not follow this procedure.
