Press the sunroof button located on the overhead console of the Roewe RX5 to complete the sunroof reset. Here are the relevant details: 1.

Interior features: The Roewe RX5-PLUS adopts the new family-style integrated center console design, and the 12.3-inch full LCD instrument panel also includes AR navigation. 3.

My Roewe RX5 also had a sunroof issue before where it couldn't open or close properly. Later, I found out it needed a reset. The steps are actually quite simple: First, sit in the car, turn the key to the ignition position but don't start the engine. Then, locate the sunroof control button, press and hold the sunroof switch for about 20 seconds until the sunroof automatically completes an opening and closing action before releasing. Remember to check if it works properly after the reset. If it still doesn't work, it might be due to dust accumulation in the tracks or a faulty switch. Regular cleaning of the sunroof tracks can prevent issues. I tried the reset myself, and it worked well, but if it still doesn't function, I recommend visiting a 4S shop for inspection, as improper sunroof resetting might affect its sealing.
Encountering a Roewe RX5 sunroof reset issue? Here's a simple and easy-to-learn solution. Start the vehicle to the ignition state without turning on the engine, then press and hold the sunroof switch for over ten seconds until it completes the automatic operation. I often teach this trick to my friends—after resetting, the sunroof opens and closes much more smoothly. Remember to reset it promptly after battery replacement to avoid unusual noises. It's recommended to follow the instruction manual for operation. If unsure, recording a video for professional consultation is a safer approach.
The key to resetting the Roewe RX5 sunroof lies in the correct procedure: turn the ignition to the ON position, then press and hold the sunroof button for approximately 15-20 seconds until the movement completes. This resets the electronic control module's memory position, ensuring precise opening and closing. Many owners report resolving malfunctions after resetting, with battery voltage fluctuations often being the root cause. Regular functional testing helps prevent unexpected jams.
