Not working. Pervious owner said it never worked. I started to check it out and found two wires with in line fuses coming down the passenger side. After fuses there is about 6" of wire just hanging there.
I didn't pull the head liner to test motor seeing as those wires were not connected to any thing. Any help would be great

I bet the actual mechanism is broken and somebody disconnected the wires so it could not be opened by accident.

Humm those wire I spoke of wher aftermarket if there even is a factory sun roof. Was thinking of running power to them just to see if it would move.
The headliner is sagging on drivers side. No sign of water leaks and in all honesty I really don't care if it works or not. It's more of a OCD thing.

The sunroof in my ZJ had a bunch of broken track parts, it's an after market sunroof and parts are hard to find. I just adjusted the glass to fit flush and sealed it up and pulled the fuse for it. I wish it didn't have a sunroof, but it is what it is.
