the moonroof, do the following: 1. Check the fuse for the moonroof motor (see page 239). If the fuseis blown, replace it with one of the
same or lower rating.
2. Try closing the moonroof. If the new fuse blows immediately or the
moonroof motor still does notoperate, you can close the
moonroof manually.
3. Get the moonroof wrench out of the tool kit in the trunk. 4. Use a screwdriver or coin to
remove the round plug in the
center of the headliner. 5. Insert the moonroof wrench into
the socket behind this plug. Turn
the wrench until the moonroof is

fully closed.

6. Remove the wrench. Replace the
round plug.
