hey again lads. so recently I was drivin out on the curvin roads of the ranges and i decided it would be great to have the wind in my hair so i crank the sunroof open. woo the wind was roarin through the car and all was great! however...

we arrive at the beach and i press the button to close the sunroof and... the roof didnt budge.. thats weird, press it again the motor whirrs but the roof didnt move at all! ****! here we are in the middle of the whops and my sunroof wont close.. it did this a while back then it suddenly started working again. but as of now (a month later) it still doesnt work.. i managed to get the roof closed almost all the way but.. not ALL the way.. so it leaks !!

so... any ideas what could cause it to work then not work then work again... i hear the motor spinning when i press the button but its like its not catching. any ideas what could cause this oh so unfortunate problem guys?? any one else had the same problem?? im even starting to consider silicon sealin it but thatd be an eye sore

any help MUCH appreciated

sounds like the gears are either broken or not engaging. you will have to take the sunroof out to see what is going on

I found this by doing a search it may help you

ok quick and probably dum question.. whats the bezel? i took off the lil round plastic thing with an arrow and "open" on it and what looks like a coin slot on the middle and theres just a silver wierd shaped thing that spins when i press the sunroof button ( i must sound like an idiot here )

thats coin slot thing is the thing youll need to turn and if it dont turn its prolly the gears are broken happened to me. and there is a how to in the other sunroof post of how to remove and install it

ok so lemme get this straight. to be able to move my sunroof manually i must turn the lil plastic thing? ... if i remember correctly the lil plastic thing used to turn when i pressed the sunroof button but it doesnt anymore.. when i press the button i still hear the whirr of the motor moving but nothnig happens oh and it only whirrs when i press for it to close. not open.

i could not see any golden screw to turn. would i have to take off the headliner to get to it?

you have to take all the switch part its two screws let me find the post and i send you the how to link
