Sunroof problem

My sunroof does not work. At all.. well there is a faint click from the motor when you hit the button but no movement.

I've tried adjusting the clutch, checking all my fuses, etc..
It's so cold, I'm not really worried about it but I wanted to get it done before spring time.

Could the motor be bad? It just stoped working one day.... after it started raining with no other weirdness.

And it was a b**ch to get closed with that alan wrench.

Was it really hard to turn the wrench or was it just a pain to to align the alan and turn all those times? That would drive me nuts, maybe you could keep a drill with an alan bit in your car Did you see this thread: http://www.subaru-svx.net/forum/show...hlight=sunroof

I've heard bad sun roof and wiper motors click in other cars. I have to lift my sunroof to open it and the motor sounds tired, but it always works. I would guess that it is the motor if clutch adjustment and lube/cleaning the tracks doesn't help.

Oh yeah, some fuses can look fine when they have blown. Try replacing the fuse anyway.
