minuto 7. gracias buen hombre

Still today! This video helped me close my sunroof! Thank you so much!!! Ford should def do a recall, this is the second time I am now replacing this part.

Hello, also just pulled the roof panel down a little , enough to tap the motor a few times with my wrench, and it worked. Tryed this because in the past had to do the same with starter motors not engaging, tap with a pry bar and it engaged the solenoid. This might work for y’all, it worked for me.

Awsome video. Very detailed. I wonder how hard it is to do from the top.

Thank You for this video! My roof was left open and the sky opened up, flooding the inside floors and even my glove box as well soaking the circuit board of the slide motor. After watching your video, I was able to manually control the motor and close the roof and now have the right part number available to me for ordering a new one.....Thank You again!!

Can you show the box for the sensor? Where is the best place to buy it?

What size torque screwdriver???? Mine is stuck in tilt mode! 2017 ford explorer sport here & tried to do the reset now it’s stuck in tilt , motor is not working

Description says bank 2 but you work on bank 1. Nothing major, just noting the discrepancy.

Thank you! My 2013 explorer was stuck open and this worked perfectly! You are the only one I found that actually showed how to hotwire the damn thing.

Thank you! This video worked like a charm and we were able to get our roof closed

My ford explorer limited the sunroof is open and stuck in the tilt position and won't close

Fixed my moonroof! Thanks Ian! 👍🏼

I have to wonder now that I have received a RECALL notice for the windshield connectors going bad (but Ford doesn't have a "fix" at the moment) if the sunroof motors are going bad due to leakage around the top of the windshield and pooling by the sunroof motor/s. I cleaned the drain tubes....closed the sunroof via my 18v battery and haven't opened it since...yet when we have heavy rains there is water dripping from the sunglass compartment/light area and the visor area all around the top of the windshield is wet and even dripping at times... this is a common problem and with this recall I think they owe more than a few sunroof motors to customers....I told this to my local dealer and made a written complaint for such...$32,000 they should stand by their products and fix or repair....I believe that they know and are aware that the sunroof motors are going bad and are related to the windshield issue connectors because that's the only place that my Ford is leaking from right at the windshield where these connectors are bad

Wait, so the motor wasn’t the problem the circuit board was?

Can you show/tell me where bank 1 sensor 1 is?

Bro, where you live? Can i just bring it to you!

Gracias,.me salvaste

The other day I got in the car to go to work and it was leaking through the center console and it's never done that before but today while driving my sunroof opened by itself and won't shut now

Thank you for the video. Used a portable jump start pack to apply power to the motor.

Great video, thank you so much. This was a really helpful trick until the new motor comes in.

Ian - Thanks for putting this together. This worked perfectly for me.

On a 2016 you can also just remove the motor completly and then switch the passenger one over to the driver side and reset it to just close it. Thats what i did and it worked, but your video also helped out alot. Much thanks

And several hours later my motor burned out. $361 for a new one from the dealer, as I needed to get on the road tomorrow for several hundred miles. Insane that Ford charges these kinds of prices for a more than likely sub $20 cost on their end, but at least my sunroof is closed before it rains.

Thank you, i wish i had searched for this days ago with my roof tilted open for several 40 degree days

Howdy! In hindsight, would removal of the oil filter first made this job much simpler?

excelente!!!! yo tengo el mismo problema y ahora se como resolverlo

Worked great!!

God bless you thank you very much for your help

Wow super helpful man ❤

this video was so helpful. I would also add, use PB Blaster on the sensor threads to loosen it up.

Very helpful. Thank you!

Great presentation step by step. It will save me from spending unnecessarily as found a simple fix. I will keep the sunroof closed.

I have a todo list item to blow out both drains every 2-3 months.

If I could Like this video 1000th time i would!! Grate job thx.

CANT THANK YOU ENOUGH! I am now a loyal subscriber! Godbless you brother I am not a handy man at all and I was able to do this! You are a true blessing!

Thank you so much ❤

Thank you so much for this video. Had a mechanic tell me that you couldn’t just order the motor for replacement and it would cost 8 thousand dollars to fix. Did exactly what you showed and got it closed. I’m good now just won’t open it again. Not like I did much anyway!

Ty😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤great video for someone who is an electrician

Great video. Purchased the motor from our Ford dealership. We swopped out the entire unit. Not just the circuit board. Initialized and it worked immediately. Thank you again.

Life saver..used the alligator clips to shut the top before it rained .. awesome

Just wanted to give you a HUGE THANKS for this video! You saved me in the midst of a rain storm!

Thanks! my sunroof drains were clogged, so not only was water dripping into the cabin when it rained but it also fried the motor, leaving me no way to clear the clogs. Using a dewalt cordless drill battery, I was able to get the sunroof open to make the repairs. Thanks again!

Thanks for the video. Mine is Ford Explorer 2012 and i prefer to replace the driver side sunroof motor. I removed three bolts but the motor is very hard to remove from track. Is there any way to remove it without damaging the track gear assembly?

Thank you that was so helpfull my sunroof was stuck on tilt up ans was able to close it by your video

Is there any way to close it without electricity like manually? I don’t have the device you have hooked up

Thank you for taking the time to help everyone with this knowledge. We were able to close the sunroof on a relatives car that was having this issue. The screws are Torx 28.

Damn! I see u nicked the hell out of your hand. i hate that. When u work on stuff. always happens.

Mine was stuck in tilt. Thanks tor the video. I used some longer leads and a car battery in the passenger seat
