MG ZT Rover 75 Sunroof Initialisation

I had a couple of minor issues with my sunroof recently – maybe due to a lot of use during this last summer.

The tilt did not work properly it just opened the roof slightly and when shutting windows and sunroof on the key lock it closed but then opened again.

I found this on the Rave disc …….. initialisation is performed by holding the switch in the slide closed or tilt open position for a minimum of 15 seconds. This forces the operating mechanism against fixed stops to provide the ECU with a position datum. Successful initialisation is indicated by:

• The glass panel moving to the tilt open position, if initialised by holding the switch in the slide closed position.
• Slight movement of the glass panel, if initialised by holding the switch in the tilt open position.

A straight forward simple process that seemed to have worked.
