Do you hear the sound a motor trying to retract the sunroof? If not it may be the sunroof regulator

SOURCE: Replace 2005 Cadillac CTS water pump

drain the coolant.remove belt by rotating belt tensioner cllockwise. water pump pulley will require a holding tool to keep it from turning while removing bolts. access to air ratchet can sometimes eliminate the need to hold but be careful cause thats a good way to skin some knuckles. also make installation more difficult to obtain proper torque. after pulley is off just a few water pupm mounting bolts remain. clean and dry gasket surface very well before reinstalling.

SOURCE: I have a 2005 cadillac cts with 90,000 miles and

I've been having hesitation with shifting for the past 3 years. been in the shop 6 times (its a 2006 CTS with 78,000kms on it).
First they replaced the torque converter. That fixed the symptoms for 6 month. then they replaced the ****** under warranty. next time it was software. next time I'm not sure what they did to fix it. This time they blamed it on timing chains. After being in the shop for 8 weeks, I picked it up today and it worked great, except the check engine light came on, drove it straight back to the dealer. they took it for a test drive and it broke down on the highway. had to be towed back in.

My guess is you have the "stretched" timing chain issue that can occur on the Cadillacs. It might be covered by warranty, or if your SOL like me... not covered under warranty. Right now I'm fighting with GM Canada and the local GM dealer to fix this under warranty since it started under warranty to begin this.

SOURCE: cadlillac cts 2005 sun roof not working - where is fuse box for sun roof

Hi there:

Check Rear Underseat Fuse Block (Passenger's Side) that is located under the rear seat on the passenger's side of the vehicle.


The rear seat cushion must be removed to access the rear fuse block. See "Removing the Rear Seat Cushion" listed previously from the Owners Manual.


To access the fuse block, push in the two tabs located at each end of the fuse block cover. Then lift the cover off.

This is the specific location on J CASES for Sunroof Module...

1997 LandRover Discovery sun roofs will not open. Both motors run but will not engage.

It is probable that the linkages between the motor and its actuating mechanism and the roof panel are detached. If you push the retract button as far as it will go and then push the roof panel back you should be able to reconnect the actuator mechanism and the roof panel. Had the same problem on an old renault , both wheels had become detached, reconnected them ensuring the roof panel was square, i.e. in the same position on both sides, then reattach. I was able to push steel panel pins in to the wheels and that secured it for years.

My trunk opens the roof will not retract how do I fix?

Your trunk opens... the roof? It would help if you had the make, model and year as well as a clearer question since I have yet to see a truck that opens a roof in any car.
If you mean you have two problems as in my trunk opens when I hit a bump or my trunk opens when I use the open button for the sun roof then we may hazard a guess.

My sun roof will not close. it get within once inch of being closed then opens back up. i have a 2002 volkswagon passat

Try manually moving the deflector that pops up as the roof is opened. Something may be jamming it and preventing it from retracting.

Could you tell me if my mini one convertible has a fuse box that can stop my roof retracting fully it will retract as far back as a sun roof and the other buttons lower the back windows but it will not...

If it open's. but not all the way, then the fuse is good, no other fuse to open all the way, same fuse, the problem is with the retracting assembly, will have to take it in for service.
