Seat Altea Sunroof Problem After Coding

I'm pulling my hair out. My 2013 Seat Altea diesel has a weird sunroof issue. After some coding, the sunblind is stuck, and I can't open or close the sunroof. The whole sunroof system is frozen. The sunblind won't retract. Has anyone experienced this?

Sounds like a coding issue. I had a similar problem with my Renault Megane after I tried to revise the ECU. The sunroof mechanism went bonkers. Does the error message mention "sunroof not initialized"?

Yep, that's the message: "Sunroof not initialized". So, it's a coding thing? Can I do anything myself, or do I need to visit a workshop for sunroof troubleshooting?

Almost certain it's coding related if it happened right after. I couldn't fix mine. The garage used their diagnostic tool to reset the sunroof calibration and reinitialize the sunroof control. Take it to a workshop with experience in sunroof systems and coding issues.

Just letting you know it's sorted. A local garage recalibrated the sunroof system. The sunroof control module needed a reset after the coding. It was 75€, but it's working. Thanks for the help.
