First of all I am sorry for MIMEing the list, even computer folks cannot
find some settings.

I have just encountered and cured this EXACT problem myself and therefore I
am 100% confident with what is wrong !!!!

You have a broken wire inside the door. It is a 2.5mm with the colour of
red/blue. Inside the door about 4" away from the grommet and still in the
large bundle there is a butt connection where a whole family of red/blue
wires join together. The feed wire from under the dash will be high
resistance, not open though. I opened up this whole join and remade it, all
is well again.

So my friends, you may be wondering what the hell this has to do with the
sun roof ????
