2006 Pontiac G6 GTP, 2D Coupe, StandardSECTION Initialization Procedure
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Pontiac G6. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Complete the Initialization Procedure whenever voltage has been applied to the control unit for the first time.
- Hold the sunshade switch in the close position.
- With the sunshade switch held closed, turn the rotary glass switch to the full open position and then to the full close position. Wait until both the sunshade and the windows close and remain closed for approximately 2 seconds.
- Both the window and the sunshade drives, the motor and the controller, will stall at the full closed position. This is also known as the hard stop position.
The initialization, or close stop, position is saved in electronically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM).
IMPORTANT:
The Initialization Procedure is not complete if one of the following events occurs before the initialization cycle has finished:
- The rotary switch does not remain in the closed position.
- The sunshade switch is released from the closed position.
- Ignition and/or battery power has been removed.
- If the Initialization Procedure is not carried out completely, it must be started over again.
