Honda Element Power Sunroof/Moonroof Success!
Переглядів 2,2 тис.3 місяці тому
After 26 revisions, here is (as far as I know) the world's first operational power sunroof / moonroof in a Honda Element. It works with or without the side window modification that I have also done. Since I believe in retaining factory functionality when doing mods, this also retains the ability to open the sunroof manually and remove the glass entirely. I have a few months of testing to do, bu...

    Thanks for showcasing. Yeah, it's not designed for heavy storm use, but considered a 3-season, fair weather way to enjoy additional cubic volume in your Element. If wanting to live in it for heavy rain use, I'd suggest scotch-guarding it for additional protection plus seeing where there may be potential water intrusion spots to see if a rain fly would help, just like with any outdoor tent. Enjoy using it, and the missing 2 snaps are in the mail to you.

    Look into I think it’s the Honda Odyssey or the Chrysler Town & Country but they have powered vent windows in the rear because they’re big vans. You can never get to the rear to open in them up so from the front they have powered maybe you could look into those motors and controllers for that. But great work!!

      Yes, with 2 relays per light. One relay to alternate between ground and 12v when the turn signal is on, and one relay to send that to the light depending on if the parking lights are on. It complicates the wiring for sure, but is doable.

    • @averycolburn
      @averycolburn 7 місяців тому

      The reason it doesn't work with LEDs is that with the parking light off, the power side of the corner marker is a ground, so we switch the ground side of the light to +12v to get it to flash. Then with parking lights on, the turn signal does the same thing but 12v on both sides would turn off the corner light, which is why it alternates instead of flashes in unison with parking lights on

      @@brianthompson9241 actually, I take that back, I tried to draw it out several times and could not get a synchronized parking light and turn signal when the parking light is on. Sadly I can't solve the de-sync. The issue is a turn signal off is the same as a turn signal in-between flashes, so an in-between flash turn signal would default to allowing the parking light to pass through a relay, so you'd go from on to on. No flash. With an Arduino taking inputs and spitting outputs down the pipe while waiting 1-2 seconds after receiving the last turn signal input, it could be done, but that's a bit overkill for what I had in mind. If you don't mind the de-sync but want LED functionality, that is still possible with a little more work and still a single relay. See my element owners club post for that revision
