Just as the title says.. do you have to reset the sunroof after disconnecting the battery terminal?
How about any other resets or things you have to do?

I royally screwed up my sunroof in my e39. after disconnecting the battry the sunroof never worked right and i had to replace it.

i'd like to wire my AE's to turn on with unlock of key fob (pre lci) and need to run wires into the door because i have no footwell lights so i must go in the door and behind the door panel to tap the 12v puddle lights. In theory i will need to disconnect the airbags.

thanks for your time

If you disconnect the battery before you disconnect the airbags, you should be fine. I did this when working on front door panels and the steering wheel.

Sunroof initialization:

 

Thank you VK Hong. Excellent video that gave me the confidence to do the reset and understand the process clearly. I did this after replacing the sunroof seal (due to wind noise) and I had the windscreen rattle and after the new seal was installed - I did the initialization and that allowed the sunroof to go far enough forward to mush down the linkage on the windscreen so no more wind noise or rattle!
