03 Corolla Sunroof stuck closed

tuxy · 2011-06-03 16:25:31

Used my sunroof today, closed it to go into a shop and when I came out 10 mins later it would not open. When I press the open button there is a faint click and the door light flickers slightly. Typical that it would go during this weather

Be glad its stuck closed! There should be a manual winder inside the roof panel.

Does it have its own fuse or is it shared? Best to look through the fusebox for a blown one.

Well I had a look through the fuse box in the engine bay and they all seem ok. Anywhere else I should be looking?

There should be a fusebox under the dashboard too.

With the faint click and the interior light flickering, I'd say the fuse is ok.Sticky mechanism?Try and find the manual winder and work it back and forth to try to unseize it.Lub it up afterwards.

If its a corolla and not a uk import, chances are its an aftermarket sunroof.
