Likewise, the sunroof crapped out without warning last month. Up till then it was working fine with no noise and good speed. I tried replacing the swithch and that was a no go. I have purchased a NOS motor for my next attempt. The roof will come out and all fittings will be greased.

There is good V / current to the shift console as the shifter lights work, the right side view mirror works and so do the emergency flashers.

I have yet to check the fuses, but to think that two fuses crapped out at the same time is a stretch. All were replaced with bi-metal fuses in Feb of this year when I bought the car.

I'll check the fuses and pop the console and check for voltage at the switches first. Any other suggestions? A coupe' with windows UP might as well be a sedan. This is a seriously heinous affliction and one which must be remedied quickly.

Just fishing for suggestions before I get cro-mag with it.


1985 300CD in great shape except for this anomaly.
