[s-cars] Sunroof Switch

[Mtgadbois at aol.com]

Gentlemen:
 
Just passing along that which I found in my car, a 95.5 S6 with 110K.   
Sunroof problem I experienced was in positioning.  I would close the  sunroof and 
it would close then move to the tilt setting.  In the last  month this began 
happening more frequently so I decided to pull the  potentiometer and clean it 
via the eraser method.  You gain access to  it by pulling off the ceiling panel 
- start in the front - disconnect the wires  and carefully remove the back 
plate of the pot.  What I found is that the  wipers are four metal loops.  One 
of the wipers had been worn through and  all I had were two metal fingers. I 
don't think the potentiometer has got a long  life left in it.  So I think the 
prudent thing to do is find a  replacement.  Its part number is 895 959 613.  
Anybody recently  replace theirs and found a good price? By the way I cleaned 
the pad, put it back  together and its working correctly.
 
Regards,
