Sunroof Problems

[John D]

Having small problem with the ole sunroof. It will open upward to the vent position but will not retract and open fully! Starts to retract downward but stops after about 1/4 inch. Any ideas ??

Thanks,
John D

Possible sunroof motor problem? Try opening it manually. Remove the panel where the switch is and use the oddshaped allen key in the trunk toolkit to open/close manually. If it opens/closes manually then you could assume that it is a switch or an electrical problem.
