hi guys, ive got a civic 1995 1.3 dx 3dr hatch, and the sunroof doesnt work!!!

ive heard its a common fault on hondas!?!

any ideas on how to fix it?

will i have to buy a new switch or something?

any help is appreciated.

cheers guys

 

have never troubleshooted one of those.
first thing is to find the fuse and check it.

 

I had the switch go bad on my 90 a long time ago. I took out the switch, opened it up (don't know if you can pry yours apart or not) and the contacts inside were really dirty-a little sandpaper to them-good as new. no problems since. For what it's worth....(actually, I think i used a knife to clean the contacts inside the switch)

 

thanks for the response guys!

ive checked all the fuses.....they all seem fine.

ill try and open up the switch tomorrow, and have a look around.

ill try and take some pictures of the switch, and hopefully someone will know what the problem is!

i hope its just dirt

 

The switch will prolly have 2 wires. One goes into the switch and the other comes out of the switch. If you put a paper clip and short these two wires together you will ' close ' the switch. This will send power to the motor for the sunroof and your sunroof should move. I can't look up the diagram today, but i will in a day or two when i have some time to get on my laptop.
