2018 tacoma Trd moonroof is closed and won’t open

The sunroof all of a sudden stopped

It’s fully closed and when you press the up/tilt button buttons, you can hear it clicking ( from the actual button) but nothing happens.
I removed refused and tried pressing it again and the clicking From the buttons stops so I don’t think it’s the fuse. when I Plug the fuse back in you can hear the clicking like it wants to open. just the button clicks but No other sound or movements at all

 

Sounds like you are lucky- it didn’t get stuck open.

I would guess that it is jammed and you are going to have to take it apart.

 

Its always worked great till now. Wi see if it’s like a motor component that stopped?

its fully closed. I’ve tried to push on all sides from the inside but nadda.

I haven’t seen anyone or anything on here for people having this issue at all.

 

You might look from the inside (since your moonroof won’t open) and see if there is a plastic skirt along the track that is ripped and jammed.

i don’t have a moonroof but my wife’s Corolla does. I had to replace her plastic skirt.

Her motor was working but would not close all the way, so your issue may be different. Worth a shot to check while troubleshooting.

Thanks for your response. The lining is meant no tear has no rips can see. It’s not stuck cause I can pull it out a little bit. I’m really thinking it must be the motor of it because it doesn’t even make any sense except for a click of the button when you press open and or up. But no movement or other sounds at all.
It’s really odd cause I’ve looked for other threads and issues like this on the Internet I haven’t really found anyone with it

 

I wouldn’t try to force it open, it wouldn’t be ideal to have it stuck open. I’d leave it alone until you figure it out.

 

I was just seeing if it would move at all. Didn’t move but I wasn’t gonna over push it. Don’t need more issues lol

 

My sunroof was once full of tree sap and would not move. Basically it glued itself shut, after a good washing it started working again.

 

I kinda wish it was that case! The motor doesn’t even make any sense at all so it’s not even trying to attempt to open and I don’t park under trees so there’s no sap on the top at all.

 

FYI. Expect a $1K+ cost for a dealer to resolve the sunroof issue.

 

They are never cheap and that is why I wanted to source out any problems it could be on here but no one at all seams to have this issue?

I do have extended warranty that I am still covered for.

 

If it is covered by your warranty, why not just let them deal with it?

You could always leave it closed. I guess that works until the drains need to be cleaned out…

 

try either of these!
See if they will fix under warranty, they should, if you are still under B-B.
If not, I would leave it closed and forget about it.

 

Moonroofs were not available on Access Cabs. I have not missed having one in 9 years.

 

After the sunroof in my last vehicle died, and it was like 1600 to fix it, I keep mine closed on the truck lol. I think I used it twice when I first got it. But now, with it being 7 years old...I just need to remove that button!

Isn't there a reset/learn procedure for the sunroof? You could try that and see if it does anything..but probably just the motor went boom.
