Ford GT Sunroof Initialization Error

Hey, I'm having a weird issue with my 2005 Ford GT with a gasoline engine. The sunroof isn't working right. I'm getting a "sunroof not initialized" error. The sunblind gets stuck, and now I can't even open or close the convertible top at all. Plus, the sunblind won't retract fully. I think it happened after some coding was done on the car. Any ideas?

Summary of the thread

A 2005 Ford GT owner experienced a "sunroof not initialized" error, causing the sunroof and sunblind to malfunction after some coding changes were made to the car. Initial attempts to fix the issue by disconnecting the battery were unsuccessful, indicating a deeper software problem. It was suggested to consult a specialist in Ford electronics, who recalibrated the sunroof control module, resolving the issue.

Strange one. When you say coding was done, do you mean someone messed with the car's computer? Have you tried any basic resets, like disconnecting the battery for a while? Just curious, does the error pop up immediately, or only when you try to use the sunroof?

Yeah, some software tweaks were made. I tried disconnecting the battery for about an hour, but no luck. The error message shows up whenever I try to use the sunroof controls.

Okay, that sounds like the coding might have messed with the sunroof control module. The fact that disconnecting the battery didn't work suggests it's a deeper software issue. At this point, you might need to take it to someone who specializes in Ford electronics. They might have to re-flash or recalibrate the sunroof system.

Thanks for the advice! I took it to a shop that specializes in Ford's, and you were spot on. They recalibrated the sunroof control module, and it's working perfectly now. Cost me 75€ Appreciate the help!
