zx sunroof jammed

Unread post by ZXturbo_Aura »

1992 zx td.
the sunroof retracts back about 1 inch and then stops, the motor does not seem to have enough power to push it back. sunroof goes up into tilt position with ease though, any advice?
thanks,
dan

Is it actually going back or just dropping slightly.
Both the BX sunroofs I had would stick (usually in hot weather). All they needed was a little pressure, either down on the rear from outside or forwards from the inside.

the sunroof goes back about an inch and then stops with a creaking noise. i will try sprayin all runners and rubbers with WD40 to see if this helps.
any ideas would be gratefully appreciated!

Have a look at this. May be of help if WD40 does not work.
