Ford Fiesta Roof Opening Panel Motor Guide

Roof Opening Panel Operation

The roof opening panel is an electronically operated glass panel with one-touch open and one-touch vent features. The roof opening panel assembly uses an integrated motor and module to operate the roof opening panel. To open the roof opening panel, press and release the rear of the SLIDE control switch. The roof opening panel opens automatically. Press the SLIDE control switch at any time to stop roof opening panel movement.
