I was already thinkning that the driver's door wiring harness.... Look for
frayed wires, and sometimes wires that are broken INSIDE the insulation...
you find this by flexing the wire and feeling a spot with no resistance to
bending...

-? ck for 12v on power side of circuit breakers
IF YES
You have a ground fault in the wiring.? Try pulling all the plugs off the DS
master switch, grab a beer, come back and ck *only* sunroof operation.? 
IF NO SUNROOF
Remove all plugs off all door switches, grab another beer, come back and ck
*only* sunroof operation.
IF YES SUNROOF
Add regulators in one at a time until circuit breaker blows = shorted
regulator motor
IF NO SUNROOF
Check for frayed wires in the drivers side door hinge boot.
