  1. yeah, the fuses are ok, the current draw on the affected circuits are min., and all the fuses are the correct rating. so how about that sunroof closing problem
  2. It's been awhile but finally got it all back together. I got a harness and motor from a used parts salvage yard and was the wrong one. Finally after weeks of waiting got another used one and was the right one. everything works execpt the sunroof. IT moves but can't get it to go into the closed postion. It will open all the way but when i go to close it, it goes past the closed and into the tilt up position? Is there some sort of adaption proceess?
  3. Found the problem with the dome circuit. Wires are pinched at the drivers sun visor. what i found next sent me into a swearing frenzy http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y271/wigs...pg?t=1240195623 http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y271/wigs...pg?t=1240195760 Found that it follows all the way across the top to the A-Pillar... http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y271/wigs...pg?t=1240195866 http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y271/wigs...pg?t=1240195913 http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y271/wigs...pg?t=1240195944 http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y271/wigs...pg?t=1240195974 And made the turn down the A-pillar... http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y271/wigs...pg?t=1240196058 All the way to the bottom of the apillar behind the glove boxes and stops about 2 inches before entering the main harness loom. http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y271/wigs...pg?t=1240196153 No more pics but tore the main loom open for inspection and went about another two feet into it and found that it did not go into the loom. Going to get a new/used harness and replace all the wiring from the main harness and all the roof wiring affected. Also took the sunroof motor out and tried to power it on the bench threw the gummy substance on the backside. The motor moves about a mm and then blows the fuse on my powered test light. This might be the origianl problem that started it all. Any idea what a new motor would be?
  4. OK got a little further. I was checking the fuses and found the 10amp MPX and the 10amp dome fuses burnt outso i found two i had laying around and popped them in the dome blew again as soon as I reattached the batt. So i put in a 15amp breaker i made and it just keeps popping. With the new fuses when i turn the key on the steering wheel moves like it should and the airbag light on the dash comes on. But now the climate control dosen't work, the front defrost button is just blinking. UGH
  5. thanks for the welcome. Is a 1998 237,000 miles. I am the second owner first owner was a friend that i know very well. He did all the maintnece never had a problem with it ever. I have had it for about 50k miles with no major problems. I consider myself very mechanically inclined. The only reason it actully went to a dealer because i was 200miles from home.
  6. Ok so i'm new here and have been looking around for few hours. I'm at my wits end. Any help would be great Many things are wrong. drivers window is the only window that works, sunroof is stuck in the vent position, the instrument panel is completly black does not light up none of the gauges are working Radio is not working but hasen't for a few weeks, the headlights would stay on so i had to disconnect the batt. Now the go off like they should. When i turn the lights on the bright indicator is working as are the turn signal flashers in the cluster, mirrors don't work. That's all i can think of now. I had it the dealership because it did not start. My key was broken or something. New key and it starts and runs fine now. Anyway they quoted me a wiring harness for $3820.24. I really don't want to do that. Possibly somthing else i got the feeling they just wanted to throw parts at it. He said this might fix the problem. Any help would be great. From the searches it looks like other people are saying its the classic trunk wiring problem? Where to find a how-to?
