Default 1998 sunroof w/no power

So I just bought a 1998 Accorcd EX and the sunroof doesnt work. I replaced the fuse in the side of the dash (even though it wasn't burnt out) and still nothing. Its super hot here and I would love to use it. Please advise

Its possible the motor is broken. Do you have a multimeter?

Welcome to the forums of the HAF...

How about the switch itself? again you would need but a simple power tester..borrow one at your local auto parts store to see if it has power to it..

When you have a chance to test the car let us know....also, 2dr vs 4dr.

Example.....there are two relays for the moon roof? part of the circuit is thru the power windows, but you didn't say anything about them.

If you can give a bit more info, we can at least post some ideas....diagrams so when you get back to the car you have a starting point.
