Sunroof, adjusting
The sunroof is controlled by a set of cables that move the sun-
roof panel along guide rails when the motor is operated. The
sunroof can be adjusted without removing it from the car.
NOTE-
Be sure to check drains in front corners of sunroof carrier if
water is entering car through headliner.
- The sunroof panel should be adjusted under the following cir-
cumstances:
Sunroof misaligned with roof.
Sunroof does not close squarely.
* Wind noise at high speeds (sunroof closed).
Sunroof has been removed.
For correct sunroof alignment:
Sunroof must be fully closed.
Gap must be even all around edge of sunroof.
Front of sunroof must be flush to
1 mm (0.04 in.) below sur-
face of roof.
. Rear of sunroof must be flush to 1 mm (0.04) above sur-
face of roof.
NOTE-
Use a credit card to measure the gap. The card sllould insert
through the gap with equal resistance all around the perimeter.
Sunroof with steel roof panel, adjusting
- The headliner panel must be disengaged from the drive as-
sembly and moved rearward in order to access the roof panel
attaching screws.
CAUTIOI\C
Sunroof panel must never be moved to open position when . .
I the headliner is disenaaaed. 1
- Start with a fully closed roof panel.
- Remove drive motor access cover. See Sunroof motor, re-
placing.
Using hex key from tool kit, turn motor drive 90" counter-
clockwise.
Rear of sunroof panel will drop
2 to 3 mm (0.08 to 0.12 in).
This disengages headliner from sunroof panel.
- Push headliner panel rearward, exposing roof panel attach-
ing screws.

This section covers repairs to the following seat belts sys-
tems. See the table below.

in 721 Airbag System (SRS).
Troubleshooting
The seat belt reel should lock when driving quicltly through
curves,
during severe braking or in case of a collision. The au-
tomatic reel does not require any servicing and should never
be opened.
- In case of an accident, follow the seat belt troubleshooting
procedures presented
in the table below.

Insert screwdriver through opening in rear of steering
wheel and push against spring tension to release
airbag
unit lock.
Repeat procedure on other side of steering wheel.
Lift off
airbag unit and detach electrical harness connec-
tors.
WARNING-
Store the removedairbag unit with the horn pad facing up.
If stored facing down, accidental deployment could propel
it violently into the air, causing injury.
Once an
airbag is removed, the car must not be driven.
Do not connect the battery with the
airbag disconnect-
ed. A fault code will be stored, setting off the
airbag in-
dicator light Special tools are needed to reset the fault
memory
Once the
airbag unit is installed and all other service
procedures have been completed, start the engine and
check that the
airbag indicator light goes out. If the in-
dicator light stays on, the
airbag system will not func-
tion as designed. Have the system diagnosed and
repaired by an authorized
BMW dealer.
- Installation is reverse of removal.

On-Board Diagnostics
Professional diagnostic scan tools available atthe time of this
printing include the BMW factory tools
(DISplus, GTI,
MoDiC) and a small number of aftermarket BMW-specific
tools. See
020 Maintenance.
In addition to the professional line of scan tools, inexpensive
generic OBD
II scan tool software programs and handheld
units are readily available. Though limited, they are
nonetheless powerful diagnostic tools. These tools read live
data streams and freeze frame data as well as a host of other
valuable diagnostic data.
Diagnostic monitors
Diagnostic monitors run tests and checks on specific
emission control systems, components, and functions.
A complete drive cycle is requiredforthe tests to bevalid. See
Drive cycle in this repair group. The diagnostic monitor
signals the
ECM of the loss or impairment of the signal or
component and determines if a signal or sensor is faulty
based on
3 conditions:
* Signal or component shorted to ground
Signal or component shorted to
B+
Signal or component missing (open circuit)
The OBD
II system monitors all emission control systems that
are installed. Emission control systems vary by vehicle model
and year. For example, a vehicle may not be equipped with
secondary air injection, so no secondary air readiness code
would be present.
OBD
II software monitors the following:
Oxygen sensors
Catalysts
Engine misfire
- Fuel tank evaporative control system
Secondary air injection Fuel system
Oxygen sensor monitoring. When driving conditions allow,
response rate and switching time of each oxygen sensor is
monitored. The oxygen sensor heater function is also
monitored. The OBD
II system differentiates between
precataylst and post-catalyst oxygen sensors and reads each
one individually. In order
forthe oxygen sensor to be
effectively monitored, the system must be in closed loop
operation.

DTCs provide a freeze frame or snap-shot of a vehicle
performance or emissions fault at the moment that the fault
first occurs. This information is accessible through generic
OED I1 scan tools.
Freeze frame data contains, but is not limited to, the following
information:
Engine load (calculated)
Engine rpm
Short and
long term fuel trim
Vehicle speed
Coolant temperature Intake manifold pressure
Open/closed loop operation
Fuel pressure (if available)
