529t sunroof module

One 529t can not work the windows up/down AND a sunroof open/close by itself. So there is probably a 529t being used for the sunroof, and perhaps a 529t, 530t or other used for the windows.

Have the installer check if the 529t for the sunroof is properly set up for "controlled-duration" operation. Seems it is set for "full-travel" operation.

Sorry for the delay in answering..but I already answered it in a sense.

Use a 530T for the sunroof as well. The only "bad" side effect I can see from this is if it starts raining..other then that the module electrically does the same thing the switch does..in other words the motor itself can not tell the difference if you are using the switch in the car or doing by remote control.

Hope that helped.

No, you do not sound like an idiot at all. You just may not understand what is going on with these modules.

If you go back to my original response "Have the installer check if the 529t for the sunroof is properly set up for "controlled-duration" operation. Seems it is set for "full-travel" operation." you should know what your next step is...to approach the installer and see if that has been done. If the installer does not understand this..find another......or........

I suggested the 530T as a second option since we know it does exactly what you want it to with the windows...so I can't think of any reason on this great blue planet why it wouldn't do the same with the sunroof....in other words the module does not know the difference between a sunroof or a window....they both use motors...the reason the sunroof is not doing what you want it to is either installer related..or the model of module you are using (529t) is incapable..it has nothing to do with anything else.

Also note that the sole reason DEI reccomends the 529T for the sunroof is because that is all that is required...it saves you money as the 530 costs more. But it doesn't mean you can't use something else if you are doing something different..like leaving the sunroof open when you arm the alarm. It does not mean you can't use a 530T or any brand or model module you wish...trust me on this one..the alarm simply sends out a low current negative signal to tell the module when to activate...the alarm system itself has no clue what model (or brand for that matter) module it is controlling.

So..if the installer for whatever reason can not get the 529T to do what you want...but can with the 530T...I would go that route...the alarm will not know the difference regardless.

I hope this cleared things up for you...
