Default Sliding Roof System Issue?

Hey Peoples...

Trying to find out if this is normal...

Is my Sliding Sunroof Operation normal?

When I push the button it tilts up the Glass.

I push and hold open for a short time (under a sec) , It auto opens about 3/4 of the (full) position.

I have to push and hold again for the glass to open all the way to the edge.


To close the Auto function doesn’t work at all.

I have to hold the close button down the whole time. The glass will close about 50% then I have to release the button and press and hold it again till the sunroof is completely closed.

I have done the following steps but the glass never opens automatically opens like the instructions say.

During lunch, I'll disconnect the battery and try to reset it again.

INITIALIZATION

1. RESET SLIDING ROOF DRIVE GEAR (MOTOR)
NOTICE:

The sliding roof drive gear (motor) must be reset (pulse sensor’s location must be set) when: 1) the battery has been disconnected, 2) the drive gear connection is connected/disconnected, or 3) the sliding roof is replaced or installed/removed. If the drive gear is not reset, the AUTO function will not
operate.
(a) The sliding roof AUTO operation and the jam protection function may not operate normally if the battery is disconnected/reconnected, replaced or recharged. Initialize the sliding roof system using the method
below.
(1) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(2) Press the close switch to activate the close operation. Fully close the roof and continue to press the close switch for approximately 2 seconds. When the sliding roof control ECU initialization is finished, the roof will automatically open and stop a few millimeters from the fully open position.

HINT:

If the battery terminal is disconnected, the sliding roof control ECU may not detect the position of the roof
glass. If the sliding roof AUTO operation is still disabled even after the sliding roof drive gear has been initialized,
the hall IC may be malfunctioning. The hall IC is built into the sliding roof drive gear and detects the
roof glass position.

Well after reading this, I guess its working the way its intented.
As long as their isnt a auto close function.

ON–VEHICLE INSPECTION
NOTICE:
The sliding roof drive gear (motor) must be reset (pulse sensor’s location must be set) when: 1) the
battery has been disconnected, 2) the drive gear connection is connected/disconnected, or 3) the
sliding roof is replaced or installed/removed. If the drive gear is not reset, the AUTO function will not
operate.
1. CHECK AUTO SLIDE–OPEN FUNCTION
(a) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(b) Press the sliding roof control OPEN switch for 0.3 seconds or more. Check the OPEN operation of the
roof glass No. 1 and No. 2.
(1) When the switch is pressed, check that: 1) the glass No. 2 tilt upward, 2) the glass No. 1 tilts upward
at the same time the glass No. 2 slides open, and 3 ) the glass No. 2 stops 50 mm (1.97
in.) from the fully open position.
(2) When the switch is pressed again, check that the glass No. 2 slides to the fully open position.
2. CHECK MANUAL CLOSE FUNCTION
(a) Check the CLOSE operation of the roof glass No. 1 and No. 2.
(1) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(2) While pressing and holding down the sliding roof control CLOSE switch, check that the glass No.
2 slides to just before the fully closed position.
(3) When the switch is pressed again, check that the glass No. 1 tilts downward at the same time
the glass No. 2 slides to the fully closed position.
3. CHECK SLIDING ROOF OPERATION FUNCTION AFTER IGNITION SWITCH IS TURNED OFF
(a) Turn the ignition switch from ON to OFF.
(b) The sliding roof’s AUTO operation function should be available for 43 seconds. However, if one of the
front doors is opened during AUTO operation, the sliding roof should stop its operation immediately.
(c) Wait for 43 seconds after the ignition switch is turned OFF. Then, both the AUTO and manual operation
functions should not be available any more.
(d) With one of the front doors open, turn the ignition switch OFF. If foreign matter IS caught between the
sliding roof and vehicle body and the sliding roof’s jam protection function is triggered, the sliding roof
should reverse its movement and stop at the fully open position.
4. CHECK JAM PROTECTION FUNCTION
HINT:
When the sliding roof AUTO and MANUAL operation is being used, the jam protection function prevents objects
from being caught between the vehicle body and the roof glass.
Operates when:
 CLOSE switch is operated.
 CLOSE switch is operated after the ignition switch is turned OFF.
CAUTION:
 Do not use a part of your body, for example your hand, or any object to check the jam protection.
Do not allow anything to become caught in the sliding roof in this procedure.
 The jam protection function may not operate with an object that is less than 5 mm (0.20 in.) in
width.
