[therock2689]

How do you reset a sunroof. I have a 2000 C230K and it doesnt close right. When i push it forward it doesnt close all the way, its like 1/2 an inch off. But then when u go to do like a vent the roof, it closes right. What the hell do i do now

Im not sure, but I think you have to keep the switch in closed position for a period of time, that is if the mechanical parts are still intact, such as the cable and the track.

everything on it works. opens and closes smooth, no weird noices or anything its just that the stops are out of place. I dont know what to do.

close the roof and open the back side and keep the button down for 2 seconds.

thats the problem, it doesnt tilt up in the rear

search and you will find your answer, this happened long ago to me and i found it with a search in a matter of minutes...

[therock2689]

Ok, i did the search, did what it said to do and i got shit. I held it in teh closed switch position for a min. and got nothing. I held it in the vent position for the same amont, nothing. I closed it manualy and then tryed to reset, it just moved back teh same half an inch.
What the hell do i do now???

maybe use the manual tool to close it in its fully closed position

[jnenad16]

either the track is bent or the cable is stretched.

I've had the same problem, once or twice a year. One solution that works ... most of the time ... is with your key. If you hold the unlock button for however many seconds, all of the windows AND sunroof are opened. Holding the lock button, correspondingly, closes them all. For some reason, the sunroof behaves properly during this procedure and usually returns to proper behavior when using the interior sunroof switch. Sometimes you need to cycle it a few times. I have also had it not work, then for some unknown reason, days later the sunroof starts working normally without my intervention. Kind of insane.

NO i have not gotten it to work because everyway explained above need got teh sunroof to be tilted up and mine WILL NOT do that at all. Some one help me out here

[detroit202]

did you try the manual tool to close it all the way maybe that will seat it correctly.. the socket is under the cabin light

Mine seems to need a reset every few weeks...it gets stuck in the "up" position. The reset always works...but is this indicative of another problem? Seems odd.
