Resetting the Moon Roof Auto Open/Close feature
Last week, my moon roof stops operating properly. No more 1 button open/close - it became a tiresome manual process. Let me tell you, trying to get the moon roof closed properly was a hit or miss game.
So off to Radley Acura at Bailey's Crossroads to see what needed fixing. Seems that there is a routine to reset the AUTO function of the sun roof:
It does indeed work!
So I'm wondering: how many more other routines are available to us?
