Moon Roof or Shade Wont Open.

[drober30]

Had my Explorer two days and last night I went to open the moon roof and it was like there was no power to the switches. I couldn't even get the shade to open

Take it to the dealer?
I wouldn't even bother trying to fix it yourself on a brand new vehicle...

I will head there first thing in the morning. I needed to pick up my crossbars anyway.

I thought I would check that but since I have to go to the dealer anyway, Ill let them.

*EDIT - OK, I stopped being lazy and it was the fuse! Thanks NEWPORTNJ for nudging me and making me not so lazy! One less thing I have to have checked out. I will ask the dealer for a replacement fuse to put back in the spar location.

Now the next question. Why did the fuse blow in the first place?:scratch:

 

[SWEET ST]

Peter9 is right why did fuse blow, well things to look into
1. Short in wireing or bad motor
2 tension when openning or closeing
3 it was a bad fuse
4 freak happening
just let them check it thats what warrenty is for.

just let them check it thats want warrenty if for.

Agreed. Truly, I would even have them replace the fuse. It's not from laziness, but to get the problem logged.
