Re: sunroof wont open
i tried to give it a little push and that did not work. also, my intermittent wiper is not working. my other wiper speeds work. could these 2 be related to the same problem?

Re: sunroof wont open
must be relays or motors man but yeah i say check your motors and when and if you get your sunroof popped make sure yo grease the rails it helps somewhat

Re: sunroof wont open
Same thing happened to me, but part of my wind deflector arm had broken off and gotten trapped. I eventually just messed with it till it gone so far back it didn't interfere with the operation of the sunroof anymore.

Re: sunroof wont open
More than likely relay. Been there with the same problem, relay would click over put wouldn't send current to the motor. Only difference is that mine wouldn't close (real fun, right)? Try tapping the relay a bit with your hand or a screwdriver, see if it frees up, could check the terminals on it as well. If anything, just replace it.

Re: sunroof wont open
I had a sunroof on my 95 EJ1 that didn't like to slide. I lubed the tracks with silicone spray lube, and it's worked like a dream ever since.
