okay so i just bought a 94 celica gts. the cars great i love it. anyways i was just looking at the car and all the features or w/e and i cannot open the sunroof at all. like it doesnt even make a noise to show that it is trying to open. my power windows and doors work fine. i checked the fuses and the ones i checked which the sunroof would run off of were all fine. so im wondering if anyone knows why it wont move?? it wont slide or tilt, doesnt even try. so im thinking it might be the motor but if anyone knows, your help would be appreciated. thx

Sounds like maybe it's just not hooked up. I would think the motor would at least try to work [unless it has that internal switch like flipup headlights do when they go bad]. there is only two screws that hold the whole cover/switch assembly in. Take them off and check for power with a volts meter. If you have power, check to make sure the switch is giving power to the motor when you hit the switch and move on from there.

^ do all that stuff in a garage or on a dry day though, in case you open it and can't get it closed! 
if you need a new motor, i have one you can purchase. lmk. and good luck

alright so now that all the snows melted and its warming up I've been out working on my car and i still cannot get that sunroof to open. I checked for power to the switch and there is, so there is nothing wrong with the wiring/harness. So I am guessing from what you said that the motor just isnt hooked up or its dead. If it is just not hooked up how do I go about doing so? I dono if this is common with toyota's or what but having the sunroof working would be nice with summer coming..haha anyways anybody have an idea of what to do from here?
so if there's power to the switch, the next step is to check the relays. the sunroof relays are in the roof.
if the relays are fine, then you probably have a dead motor.
