Factory power sunroof repair...

Just wondering if anybody has any experience with the '87-'88 factory power sunroof.  Mine is fubar, but I found 2 '88 Mark VII's hidden away at one of my local yards with what may appear to be functional sunroofs.

If anybody has any exploded view diagrams of the sunroofs for the '88 Bird and/or '88 Mark VII, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,
Don

have you tried to jump directly to the moonroof motor?  I had to do this to verify that mine would open due to an unknown electrical problem.

I'm thinking you meant moon roof, didn't you

Yes, moonroof...the power one...lol.

I haven't screwed around with it yet, because the headliner has wood jammed between it and the glass...and my headliner is trash.  I'm just trying to get as much information as I can...hopefully knock it out in one day.

Thanks,
Don

If I get a chance, I'll scan those too.
I just happened to have the sunroof already scanned.
