Toyota 4runner Sunroof Wont Open

When i press the button either way i hear a quick click and then nothing.

Toyota 4runner sunroof wont open.

This is the 3rd time i had tore apart this sunroof and finally fixed it. I took the map light unit down to get to the motor and it looks like something is seized up cause when i push the button the gears start to turn but then slide over and rub the plastic housing. I love the little gilded monster and i will be the last owner. 2004 toyota 4runner parts dealer wants 2k to replace whole assembly.

I bought my current 4runner with a jammed open sunroof i had another parts rig at home and swapped it out. Ill ceck the fuses and stuff. What really sucks if you open it and can t close it. Could not find any videos or info so i hope this helps.

First of all if your sunroof is stuck open and you need it closed quickly go to step 1. Well you shouldn t have opened it to begin with. In my 4runner i don t use my sunroof in fact i keep the shade closed too. I have a stuck sunroof in the open position.

If you can hear the motor clicking when you push the switch for your sunroof go to step 3. It s way to bright outside there is pollution there are bugs and birds there are flying rocks rain drops hail carjackers thieves and solar. If your sunroof isn t working and you can t hear the motor running go to step 2. I have a 99 4runner and the sunroof won t open.
