Hi,

I have a ba xr6t and all of a sudden the sunroof has stopped operating.

I jumped in the car and tried the preset 1 and 2 buttons which done nothing I then tried the arrow which opened the sunroof to the 'popped' position but now I can't get it closed, none of the buttons are doing anything.

The control pad is still illuminated so I am assuming it is not the fuse

When I turn off the ignition it usually beeps and auto closes but it now isn't doing that either so I'm really not sure what else to check.

I have tried disconnecting and reconnecting the battery already

Straight after posting this it has started to work again :/ but sounds very tired and slow

There was a recall on ba sunroofs ages ago, cant remeber what for though sorry.

Apparently for the glass coming adrift.

And this one has a link to identify if yours is affected .

Not saying this is your prob, just sayin.

When I bought it I was told by the previous owner that it had already been replaced under the recall, I cleaned the sliders and put some liquid lanolin on them to lubricate and all seems good now

if it continues then replace the fuse. mine did this a few years ago- checked the fuse and looked fine. replaced it anyway and it came good.

Have you had your battery out? I noticed when my battery started dying, the sunroof lost its memory, simple case of replace battery and resetting the sunroof. If your battery is fine you might just need to reset it
