ok i have important question any help is appreciated.....

i am new here i have a 1998 c280 and my moonroof has what i percieve as serious problems...when opening it goes in very short intervals and it takes three times of letting off and having to hit the button again to get it open and then when i try and close the sunroof it wil not close @ all no sound nothing just does not work...i am guessing this may be a relay or some sort...i have brought the car to a shop and they had said everything was fine and it was for a day and since that day it has been screwed.....please help

thank you

man with tired arms

hmm

when you press the button do you hear the motor trying to move the sunroof glass?

if no, motor might be dead

if you hear motor and sunroof wont open/close maybe the alignment is off or it needs to be oiled

Sounds to me like the cables have gotten tangled up. You will have to take it to a shop to fix it. You have to take the headliner and everything since the motor is in the trunk.

have you disconnected your battery recently? If you have, dont worry about it, it'll get back to normal
