Default ES350-Moonroof - 10-21-2006 , 06:36 AM






I want the moonroof to remain closed. I want it so that it cannot be
opened...not by the kids, not by the passengers...and most especially,
not by some eager-beaver technician wondering (without authorization)
why it doesn't work. I want it disabled (but not damaged) so that it
can be easily enabled at a later date when I sell the car. Can this be
done in a way that is not blatantly obvious (such as...removing a fuse)
without affecting other systems?

If you unplug the fuse that controls the sunroof, you would also lose the
dome lights. The easiest thing to do would be to unplug the switch or the
sunroof control relay.

disconnect the line running to the sunroof switch.
