hello guys! :hello:

 

help me... -_-

My sunroof is very temperamental ... Let me explain.
Sometimes it works well, other times not ..
This Week  wanting to close, I heard a noise by closing like "brrrrrrrr" and after he stopped working... :ph34r:
I had to close with the emergency button.

 

i take a look to the interrupteur and is clean...i don t think is the problem.
 

Maybe the relay is dead ? engine of the sunroof?

 btw or does i find the relay and "engine of sunroof" ?
Thanks..

It's the switch. Try wiggling the contacts and it will work.

 

Hum today i retire the switch and is very clean.. the contacts are good because is very hard to put again ..

Tomorrow i do a new test... i hope is the problem.

ps: I forgot to clarify one thing, when I reconnected the switch I hear a "click" when I press .. So I think it is the relay switch or fuse? btw can anyone tell me what is the fuse for the sunroof?
Thank you for your answers.

I went for a ride and the sunroof works again.
But impossible to close. I hear the famous sound "brrrrrr" and I have to close it with the spare key.
So this is probably the switch or the motor ... <_<
The engine is in the same small compartment of the emergency closing ??

 

thanks.

If you can find another switch, use it. I had the same problem, but the opposite. I couldn't open the sunroof. While wiggling the contacts on the switch it works. It must be a loose contact inside the switch.

I think you can use a window switch. It should be the same. Just replace the top plastic with the sunroof/window sign. 

Try using a window switch first.

It's a very usual joke in spanish forums. For example, if a girl opens a topic introducing herself to the community, she usually gets dozens of answers welcoming her (much more than boys). Then it's time for the "BuitreSeñal" (Vulture Signal).

In car's forums is used normally in breakin car's topics, or when someone is trying to get advantage of another one's job. In this case I wanted to mean that I was going to try to get the switch that Joe could find in ebay...

PD: Ok. Not the best joke ... :P  :P

It says so on the upper side, but I never saw that.

 

Swat signals applied to nightclubs, where you can't speak easily. From upper left to bottom right: 

 

She's mine/ She's beautiful/ You all come here!

Did you see how pretty she is/ (greeting) Girl, dawn!!! /She's hot

I'll pick you with this (??)/ ??/ Let's look around

Last off-topic, I promise (don't believe me, Joe  :P )

 

I know, Jon. 

 

Signal appearance is because of me. Sunroof switch is a very rare item, and quite precious for all those who have an electric roof on their 916, Because all of them break (sooner or later). I can make a fortune if I get all of them.

 

 

Anyway, Joe's bella is still impressive!!
