[V8] V8 Sunroof Problem

[Kneale Brownson]

First thing to check is the wire harness running through the driver door
jamb.  For some reason, there's a connection (maybe through that same relay
that serves the windows) that somehow ties the door switches to the sunroof
power.  Try opening the door to different angles and see if the sunroof
will operate while you're moving it. That was the performance (or lack
thereof) I experienced before I replaced all the wiring in the driver door
of my 200q20v.
