Hi guys. That's my first post in here, so happy to meet you all!

As per title, my sun roof blinds do not open at all. I still don't have a clue if it's the switch or the motor. I've seen that a used motor in ebay costs between 25-50 pounds. The switch is way less.

My questions are:
  • I've read that there is no separate fuse for the blinds motor. Which means I don't have to check anything in the fuse boxes? Nothing related to the blinds motor in the diagram...
  • If the problem is in the motor, do you consider it an easy replacement? I've put down the interior of the car and I've located the location of the motor. It seams dead easy to replace, just two screws and a plug. Do I miss anything? Any tips or any caviats when trying to replace it?
Many thanks for any help. Much appreciated!

Hi again. Quick update on that issue.

Aparently it was the sun roof motor that wasn't working (part 91295 in the diagram).

I bought one used from ebay for 30GBP. (link: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/224675441851 ... 2749.l2649).

The replacement was dead easy. You just need to unhook the ceiling on the back of the car -you have easier access from the boot. The there are just 3 or 4 screws that keep the motor on the car's frame.
I replaced the old motor with the new bought one and voila!

Thanks everyone for the help!
