Sunshades stop working help!

Recommended Posts

Hi, everything was fine on my 2008 Edge SEL AWD until the sunshades stop working, I never noticed something wrong with them they worked smoothly all the time; but today when try to close both Vista Roof and sunshades, only the glass worked but the sunshades remain at open position, when try to close I listen a sound on the motor like it's stucked but not sure. Does anyone experienced this situation? how can be fixed this issue? appreciate your help!

I don't have a vista roof, but he only thing I could think of is something is wrong with the gears. Have you tried to take your ceiling liner off and look at the parts? That would be the first step I would take. Sorry I can't help more.

Check out the video -

I remember the gentleman posted on this site a couple of years ago. I believe he uploaded two videos and very well done. Hopefully, they help.

 

Funny, I just posted the same video for someone else about a week ago.

 

Good luck!

Just started having this same problem today. I too have an 2008 Edge Limited. Approximately in 2009 the sunroof would not close as several people have posted on this forum. The dealership took it all apart and fixed the problem. No problem until now. As in yours, my roof opens and closes fine but the shade will not budge. I don't want to take it to the dealer as I am sure it will be big bucks. Any suggestions from anyone would be most helpful. I will check out the video too.
