First, press the vehicle's one-touch start button to power on the vehicle, otherwise the sunroof cannot be initialized. Then, toggle the sunroof control button to open the sunroof. Turn the knob from position A to position B. After the sunroof is fully slid open, close it again, turn off the ignition, and then repeat the previous step.

A few days ago, the sunroof of my Volkswagen Passat got stuck, and the reset method turned out to be quite simple. I tried it several times myself. The key is to start the vehicle, set the sunroof switch to the fully closed position, then press and hold the upward or open button for about 15 seconds without releasing. Once you hear a buzzing sound or see the sunroof move slightly, you can let go—this usually completes the reset. If it remains stuck, avoid forcing it; instead, check if a fuse has blown or if dust has accumulated in the tracks, affecting the operation. Regularly cleaning the tracks and applying lubricant can keep the sunroof running smoothly. Neglecting this maintenance can easily lead to such jamming issues. I always set aside some time during garage maintenance to address this.

When repairing Volkswagen vehicles, I often encounter sunroof reset issues. The basic procedure is to ensure the sunroof is in the initial closed position with the vehicle powered on, then press and hold the 'tilt' button on the control switch for more than 20 seconds without releasing until a prompt tone or reset action occurs, indicating completion. During reset, be careful not to interrupt the process. If it fails, it may be due to low battery voltage or motor malfunction. I usually advise owners to first check if the relevant fuses are functioning properly. To prevent similar faults, develop the habit of opening and closing the sunroof once a week to clean the tracks, which can reduce the likelihood of jamming and ensure driving safety.

For resetting the sunroof on Volkswagen models, I would directly press and hold the switch button upwards for about 10 seconds or more. Release it after hearing a sound or seeing the sunroof move, then check if the opening and closing functions normally after resetting. If there's no response, don't force it - it likely needs professional inspection to avoid damaging components and affecting usage.

When resetting the Volkswagen sunroof, special attention should be paid to safety. I usually operate in the parking lot to ensure the vehicle is stable with doors and windows closed to avoid accidents. Hold the control button in the upward direction for a continuous 15 seconds without moving, patiently waiting for the indicator light to change or the motor to respond, indicating the reset. Failure may be due to battery issues or a broken button. I have encountered situations where the reset failed and the switch needed to be replaced. During normal use, try to minimize opening the sunroof in rainy weather to prevent water ingress and corrosion of the wiring, thereby extending its lifespan.
