Hi everyone,

My sunroof (think its the Hollandia 700, factory option) is playing up as of yesterday.
The 1 and 2 buttons are acting as open/close respectively, and all other buttons are not functioning at all.
What could it be? The mechanism seems to be 100% ok.
If its the switch, easy fix. Otherwise I'm not sure?

Try pull out the fuse for the sunroof to reset everything related and see if that works.

Mine has a up and down arrow and 1 2 C buttons.

Use the arrows to set your desired sunroof position then to prorgram to memory press and hold the position 1 button till it beeps or for several secs.
Then choose a sec position then program it using number two button.

Cheers
Dave.

I’m having the opposite problem! My arrow buttons are working, but my preset (1, 2 & c) buttons aren’t operating at all.
I’ve tried pulling the fuse, but nothing! I wouldn’t worry too much, except you have to guess when it’s properly closed. Since setting the presets, I never used the arrow buttons

No not as yet.
Press 1 and roof slides open .
Press 2 to tilt.
Only problem is that the C button (close) doesn't work.
So either press 1 when tilted and try to stop before going past close position and starts sliding back.
Or press 2 when open and again try and stop before it starts tilting.
My savior is that the roof closes properly when I switch off engine and open door.

press and hold down one of the arrow buttons until it goes into that position fully and keep it held down until your hear a beep (it will come from the sunroof motor) then press and hold the opposite arrow button and keep it held down until your hear a beep again, do this a few times back and forth and it might clear the memory, then just reprogram the positions. this normally works if i have an issue

I know nothing about the model but in terms of the malfunction, I'd be inclined to spray contact cleaner (not WD40) into the switch in case it's just dirty contacts.
