Thanks, Mike! I did this recently for my wife’s E84 due to flaky BMW battery with a bad cell (only two years old). She couldn’t get the shade to close…drove her crazy! I was surprised not to find this in diag software. It needed to be done via the physical button as you demonstrated. Btw new ‘new’ battery solved the initial oddity with the sunroof and other odd cluster icons appearing intermittently. 👋🏻
I watched 4 other videos and this is the only one that told me to have the car running. Everyone else said to just have the car on but not started. Thank you so much 😂
After trying all the steps, unfortunately, they didn't work for my G80 330i. I visited the nearest BMW dealership, and even they couldn't resolve the issue. Eventually, they diagnosed a motor problem and replaced it at a cost of R12000 (approximately USD 630). Fortunately, I am still covered by the motorplan, so I didn't have to bear the expense. Thanks Mike much appreciated
I hade problems with sunshade and I tried do reset like u did in the video but know I have more problems. Now the roof just want to tilt and nothing else works. The heard some clicking noise when I tried to reset and after that I got more problems 😢

it could be binding in the track, or the sunroof cassette may be worn out. Preventing it from initializing. If it isn't moving at all then you may have a blown fuse, or bad motor assembly.
Thanks, Mike!

I tried so many times and it didn’t work. Do you know anything else I can do? 😫😫
