Hey there, I'm Dusty, your go-to auto expert from RepairPal's Car Genius team! Got a dead battery and need to reprogram your sunroof? No worries – here's what you can do: First, just start the ignition without actually starting the engine. If your sunroof is open, simply use the sunroof control switch to close it manually. Next, push and hold the sunroof switch to the close position for a few seconds. You should hear a click or notice a slight movement, indicating that the sunroof is entering initialization mode. Let go of the switch and then test the sunroof by opening and closing it using the switch. If the issue persists, you might need to do an advanced initialization: Make sure the ignition is on without the engine running. Hold down the tilt switch for a few seconds. This should cause the sunroof to tilt up slightly. Release the switch, then immediately hold the tilt switch again for a few seconds until the sunroof tilts up further or performs a resetting movement. Finally, test the sunroof to ensure everything is working smoothly. If the problem persists, it's best to seek professional help. A deeper dive may be required to determine why the calibration isn't completed. Always consult your vehicle's owner's manual for specific instructions, or check out https://literature.vw.com for more details.
