Sunroof Help
« on: 07 March 2010, 14:51 »
Have done a search on this and come up with nothing....although I am probably looking in the wrong place !!!!!  Basically when out today I thought it's a nice day so I will open the sunroof. However it's not working, it was fully working a few weeks ago when I opened it no probs. I have checked the connectors by the motor and they all seem fine and after checking I can't find a fuse that controls the sunroof. Wouldn't have thought the motor was dead as it's not been used and surely the motor would not just pack in without use for a few weeks. Also everything else is working like the central locking, windows, wipers etc,etc. It's not a major problem but I am a believer in if it's there it should work !!!!!  Any help greatly appreciated.      Deano

Don't have that problem Mate as mine insists on cooking me alive by staying shut  :grin: :grin:  Just find it odd how it worked a few weeks ago and now not working even though no one has touched it.

Does it work on the allen key bud? If it doesn't, your mechanism is fooked! If it does, your motor is fooked. I have a complete sunroof with motor removed from my 16v if you need it......

Not sure Mate....I did not try it. Will go out in a bit and have a go. Strange how it worked last time I tried it.      Cheers      Deano
