Sunroof has a mind of its own


Recommended Posts

With the nice sunshine we had the other day I decided to open my sunroof, it only goes halfway back and then when you press the close button it slides back but then goes up and finishes half open ! is this the motor gone or is there a way to reset the close position ?

Cheers peeps :)

nope, when you press the close switch on the panel it closes then opens and stops about an inch up, if the car is closed and you press the alarm button it again rises up about an inch :( so you have to pull it back by that much and then press the alarm button so when it moves it then ends up in the correct closed position !!

ahhh... then its not the switch... what a bugger.... might be the motor then, what about the sunroof general, have you given it all a good clean?? unplugging any plgs and replugging it... all worth a go before ripping the motor out... a good smack often helps to shake things into action too :)

Could the motor have jumped a few cogs, don't really know how they work but if you can take the motor out, use the switch to open it until the motor stops, thenuse the switch to put the motor back in the shut position, then bolt the motor on it should be back to normal? (if that makes any sense!!!)
