A faulty sunroof motor can prevent the car's sunroof from opening properly. Causes of sunroof motor damage include insufficient lubrication of the sliding tracks, excessive resistance, and motor overload. The sunroof motor mainly consists of a sliding mechanism, drive mechanism, control system, and switches. Below is an introduction to the components of a sunroof motor: 1. Sliding Mechanism. The electric sunroof sliding mechanism primarily includes guide blocks, guide pins, connecting rods, brackets, and front and rear pillow blocks. 2. Drive Mechanism. The electric sunroof drive mechanism mainly consists of a motor, transmission mechanism, and sliding screw. 3. Control System. The control system ECU is a digital control circuit equipped with timers, buzzers, and relays. Its function is to receive input from the switches, perform logical operations via the digital circuit, determine relay actions, and control the opening and closing of the sunroof. 4. Switches. The electric sunroof switches consist of control switches and limit switches.
