Hi sunroof probs.

[y61patrol]

Hi,

I have 2000 Nissan patrol 3.0 it has a sunroof as a factory option.

But at the moment it wont shut all of the way it wont go last two inches too close.

When i press the button to make it open or close it just makes a single cliick.

Any ideas?

ITS DRIVING ME NUTS!!!!

Sounds like its Jammed and throwing to over load.


Sent from a device which doesn't always agree with my thumbs...

Obvious question mate, but have you checked the runners? Sounds like its over loading as suggested and may need a decent clean out ...

Just noticed the button that makes the roof go up and down opposed to back and forward is not working/not even clicking

When you hear the single click do your electric windows still work?

Where does the click noise come from? around the sunroof or from behind the glove box.

Have you tried manually pushing the sunroof while working the switch?

Hi yendor,

Clicking comes from sunroof unit when i press back and forward button,but when i press the up and down nothing no movement no click.

I also do have working power windows before and after i press any buttons associated with the sunroof.

Tried moving bye hand no give what so ever.

That clicking noise is the relays and your electric windows still working means that the electric sunroof motor is not drawing excess current and tripping out the circuit breaker.

You will need to access the sunroof motor and connect a voltmeter across the 2 wires at the motor and make sure you are getting 12 volts when you work the switches.

Looks like you will have to drop the roof lining to have a look at the problem.

As suggested it seems to be either the motorhas failed or one of the track runners has come loose and jammed up.

Once you drop the roof lining you will know soon enough.

Rod, what tell the motor that the sunroof is open/closed? limit switch or something?
