Sliding roof just stopped working 300SDL

Got the car back from the dealer. They removed the trap oxidizer. Car runs great. Only problem is now the sliding roof doesn't work. I doubt they did anything to it. Anyway it doesn't work at all or make any noise. The fuse is good. replaced it to be sure. Is it most likely a relay problem? Which relay is for the sliding roof? Does anyone have a PDF with the relay locations for a 1987 300SDL?

That is what I did early on, replaced all fuses. Also had my sunroof motor go out and it had to be replaced. It was not totally outrageous to get fixed. Hope the fuses do the trick. Also, apparently you can get it closed from the trunk if it ever breaks and you are not at home. The sun roof is shaft driven from a motor in the trunk.

Thanks. the new fuse is holding up well. It had just stopped with no power so it had to be electrical, i am glad it costs under a dollar to fix
