PANORAMA SUNROOF & SUNSHADE MOTOR
REPLACEMENT

This bulletin provides the procedure to replace the panorama sunroof and sunshade motors on
some 2012-2013MY Opti ma (QF) vehicles , produced from August 9, 2011 to August 14, 2013,
which may exhibit a loss of the "one-touch" open/close feature of the sunshade and/or panorama
roof. This condition may be attributed to the exposure of the ECU in each motor to static
electricity, causing a loss of initialization memory. To correct this concern , install the new sunroof
and sunshade motors by following the procedure outlined in this bulletin.
Refer to the table below to differentiate between the sunroof and sunshade motors.
