It is my understanding (according to the owner's manual) that you can hold the moonroof button for one second and it will open fully. And then you can hold the second button for a second and it will close fully. Basically, it's only opening or closing for as long as I hold the button in either direction. Please help! Thank you!

Yes, that should be correct. It has worked like that for me on my parents' 2002 Camry, 2007 ES350, as well as my 1999 ES300.

So you're saying it worked according to the manual? Or according to my experience?

According to the manual. As in holding it down for a second, letting go of the button, then it continues opening automatically.

You need to re-initialize the auto feature.

Title:
INITIALIZATION OF MOON ROOF DURING PDS

Models:
'05 - '06 ES 330

Introduction

The moon roof is controlled by the sliding roof ECU, which detects and memorizes the moon roof position by counting pulses of its motor from the fully "TILT-UP" position as the start position. Once the battery terminal has been disconnected and reconnected, the sliding roof ECU does not detect and memorize the moon roof position, resulting in no functions of the one-touch tilt up and down" "one-touch slide open and close," and "jam protection." Initialize the moon roof position after reconnecting the battery terminal as outlined below.

NOTE: Any time the battery terminal has been disconnected, initialize the moon roof after reconnecting the battery terminal.

Applicable Vehicles^ 2005 - 2006 model year ES 330 vehicles.


Initialization Procedure

1. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position



2. Push and hold the moon roof switch to the "TILT-UP" side until the moon roof tilts all the way up and then tilts down slightly (approximately 10 mm [0.39 in.] at rear end).

3. Check for proper operation of the "one-touch slide open and close" and "one-touch tilt up and down" functions by pushing the switch briefly to the "SLIDE OPEN and TILT-UP" positions.

NOTE: Jam protection function becomes effective through the above initialization procedure

^Agreed. You basically need to reset it. Typically happens when your battery is unplugged.
