Lexus RX (RX 350L, RX450h) 2016-2024 Repair Manual: Initialization

NOTICE:

• When the sliding roof glass sub-assembly or sliding roof drive cable sub-assembly is adjusted or removed/installed, or the sliding roof drive gear sub-assembly is replaced, the sliding roof ECU (sliding roof drive gear sub-assembly) must be initialized to store the position of the sliding roof. If initialization is not performed, the auto operation function, jam protection function, key-off operation function, key-linked function, wireless transmitter-linked function and sliding roof open warning function may not operate, or the sliding roof may move in reverse or become misaligned.
• During initialization, do not subject the vehicle to physical shock, such as opening/closing a door or driving the vehicle at 5 km/h (3 mph) or more, and do not perform any electrical operations.
• Make sure not to turn the engine switch on (ACC) or off during initialization.
• If the sliding roof ECU (sliding roof drive gear sub-assembly) has been replaced, DTC B2343 will be stored. Clear the DTC after performing initialization.
