What is the situation when the Qoros 5 sunroof cannot be opened?
3 Answers
Qoros 5 sunroof cannot be opened possibly due to incorrect opening method, debris on the sunroof track, high temperature, and other reasons. The following details these reasons: Incorrect opening method: When the switch is pressed briefly, the sunroof will move forward intermittently; when the switch is pressed and held, the sunroof will open smoothly and completely. Debris on the sunroof track: Check if there is any debris on the sunroof track. If there is debris on the sunroof track, it may also cause the sunroof to fail to open. The debris needs to be cleaned off. High temperature: Check if the high temperature causes the sunroof to expand and fail to open. In this case, you can turn on the air conditioning to cool down or drive the car to a shady place. When the temperature drops, the sunroof can be opened.
My Qoros 5 also experienced the issue of the sunroof not opening. First, check if the switch button is functioning properly, as a faulty button will directly cause no response. Then, inspect the fuse. The fuse box is located under the driver's seat—find the corresponding sunroof fuse and test it; if it's blown, replace it with a new one. If the switch and fuse are normal, accumulated dust or obstruction in the tracks is a common cause. Clean the tracks and apply some lubricant spray. Don’t overlook motor failure, especially after prolonged use—a humming sound without movement is a clear sign. The control module can sometimes malfunction; unstable voltage or a short circuit can cause it to stop working. If you're attempting a DIY fix, try soft methods before hard ones, and regular maintenance of the tracks can prevent issues. If the sunroof won’t open while driving, avoid forcing it and seek a professional shop as soon as possible to prevent safety hazards from escalating.
I've discussed the sunroof issues of the Qoros 5 with fellow car enthusiasts, and most problems are caused by dust and leaves clogging the tracks, especially after prolonged outdoor parking. Broken switch buttons are also common - if the button fails, it's useless. The first step in self-inspection is to check if the fuse is blown; replacing it is simple and quick. When the track is stuck, clean it carefully, spray some specialized cleaner for lubrication, and avoid forcing it open to prevent scratching the glass. Motor failure often produces strange sounds; if you hear a clicking noise but the sunroof won't open, it usually means the motor needs replacement. Wiring problems are less frequent, but short circuits or loose connections can affect operation. If the sunroof won't open while driving, don't panic - stop in a safe place to inspect it yourself. If that doesn't work, take it to a 4S shop for repair, and consider getting the sunroof serviced to extend its lifespan.
