Simon_CSK Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Having spent the last 12 months getting the car running, curing the water leaks and converting to LPG I think I am just about there with only the cosmetics to spend time on. When syncing the windows and sunroof today I noticed that the sunroof wouldn't open. I think at some point I may have manually closed it and this may have diengaged the motor. Can anyone give me more insight into this and how to fix it. The motor is certainly working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escape Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Using the manual override shouldn't make a difference. If you can hear the motor turning, but nothing is happening, you need to look at the linkage. The motor is connected to the mechanism with a cable. This could have detached from the drive cog. Accessible by removing the interior light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elbekko Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Stick a screwdriver in the manual override and turn it the other way a little until you feel a pop. Should be engaged again then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
