Default 2004 ex busted moon roof

2204 ex 4 dr sdn 4 cyl
moon roof worked at delivery.
installed outside air temperature kit
did not test moon roof after kit installation
just noted moof roof does not work
checked fuse is ok
Hoping knocked wiring off back of switch or something.
Anyone with a manual know what the circuit is? I assume there may be limit switches on the roof. A verbal description of the circuit would be appreciated. I would like to verify it was nothing I did before I take it back to Honda.
Thanks for your help.
later, slater

uninstall everything you did and take it back, have them fix it under warranty.

uninstall it and take it back to the dealershi to fix it under warranty. otherwise, pick up a haynes manual at autozone and try to track the problem down yourself....it'll come in handy later on anyway....if they even have a manual out yet....heh.

is there a difference between a sun roof and a moon roof? just wondering...

from my understanding, moonroofs are what the accords typically have... they're glass tops that you can see out of when closed. sunroofs are painted metal, so when you have the sunroof closed no light comes in whatsoever. but everyone really considers them the same thing.

Checked power to the subject fuse OK.
Popped the lower dashboard to investigate cable connections.
(much easier to remove second time as clips are relaxed, firt time I thought I would break it)
moon roof switch is part of lower dashboard so comes away with it.
Connector at back of switch was not properly seated.
Seated connector which resolved problem.
Thanks for your help
