I have a broken plastic piece on my 01 Expedition Moon Roof Am I totally SCREWED?? Ford says new moon roof $$750

Likely you have a blown "fusible link". These are located either near the battery + or the starter and can be difficult to locate.

There should be some way to manually close it. Look at the owners manual for help. All Power roofs that I have seen, has a small trim cover hiding a bolt or something like that. All it takes is an Allen wench or socket to crank on and close it. For more details

It is going to be the seal in your moon roof. Unless you have holes in the top of your car you can be sure that the water is coming from there.

there is hose going from each corner of the sunroof the rear 2 drain towards the trunk and should drain out the bottom of the rear quarter panels make sure the hoses are going where they should go

1. 1. Tilt the moon roof into the vent position as much as possible and press on the front portion of the control.
   
2. 2. Now release the switch.
   
3. 3. Now press and hold that same switch again for 30 seconds or until the moon roof begins to move.
   
4. 4. Now release the switch ans immediately press and hold the switch agaon.
   
5. 5. Now the moon roof should close then open then close again.
   
6. 6. You MUST wait until the moon roof has closed that second time before releasing the switch of the process will be a failure and you will have to start again.

I have the same car and had the same problem, when you pull down the head liner you will find the motor for the moon roof. i disconnected the motor so that i could analyze it. i found that the gears in the moon roof motor are made of plastic and most of the gear teeth were chewed off. i disconnected the wireing harness from the motor and left it unplugged, i then pushed the moon roof back into position and tightened the screws to the moon roof. That is the way i left it for the past 2 years, because i was not about to spend the money t fix the motor.

i have a 2004 saturn vue and my moon roof will not shut ,
how can i fix this? is it expensive to fix?

will it work while in the ignition and running?

Check the connections to the motor for the moon roof. It's most likely that the motor has gone out, and will need to be replaced.
