Closing the Sunroof

If the electric motor will not close
the sunroof, do the following:
1. Check the fuse for the sunroof motor (see page 210). If the fuse
is blown, replace it with one of thesame or lower rating.
2. Try closing the sunroof. If the new fuse blows immediately or thesunroof motor still does not
operate, you can close the sunroof
manually.
3. Get the tool out of the tool kit in the tool box. 4. Use a screwdriver or coin to
remove the round plug in the
headliner between the sun visors. 5. Insert the sunroof wrench into the
socket behind this plug. Turn the
wrench until the sunroof is fully
closed.

6. Remove the wrench. Replace the round plug.

compartment on the right side.
Checking and Replacing Fuses

If something electrical in your car
stops working, the first thing you
should check for is a blown fuse.
Determine from the chart on pages 213 and 214 , or the diagram on the
fuse box lid, which fuse or fuses control that component. Check those
fuses first, but check all the fuses
before deciding that a blown fuse is not the cause. Replace any blown
fuses and check the component's
operation.

1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0). Make sure the headlights and
all other accessories are off.
2. Remove the cover from the fuse box. 3. Check each of the large fuses in
the under-hood fuse box by
looking through the top at the wire inside. Removing these fuses
requires a Phillips-head screw-driver.

FUSE PULLER

4. Check the smaller fuses in the under-hood fuse box and all the
fuses in the interior fuse box by pulling out each fuse with the fuse
puller provided in the interior fuse
box. BLOWN
5. Look for a burned wire inside the fuse. If it is burned, replace it withone of the spare fuses of the same
rating or lower.
If you cannot drive the car without
fixing the problem, and you do not
have a spare fuse, take a fuse of the same rating or a lower rating from
one of the other circuits. Make sure
you can do without that circuit temporarily (such as the cigarette
lighter or radio). If you replace the blown fuse with a
spare fuse that has a lower rating, it
might blow out again. This does not
indicate anything wrong. Replace the
fuse with one of the correct rating as soon as you can.

Replacing a fuse with one that has a
higher rating greatly increases the

chances of damaging the electrical

system. If you do not have a replace-
ment fuse with the proper rating for the

circuit, install one with a lower rating.

6. If the replacement fuse of the same rating blows in a short time,
there is probably a serious electrical problem in your car.
Leave the blown fuse in that
circuit and have your car checked
by a qualified technician.
