Hello

AFIR

that behavour is normal the tip electronics for the sunroof came much later when mercedes found a way to adopt a secure way to prevent accidently choped of fingers ;) while still have enough power to shut the roof under bad circumstances ( Cold weather ) Well you always have limitations by the average US costumer.

Replacing the stalk switch isn´t a big problem i guess this can be done with the tools the factory shiped with the car.

Grüssle

No, that doesn't seem correct. Neither my '95 or '99 E320s behave this way. My '99 *did* this once, and to correct it the sunroof had to be "resynchronized" (I believe that this is done by opening it all the way and holding the button for a few seconds). The same thing sometimes needs to be done to side windows that have the one-push close feature. Now my '95 does not have this feature, and unless your '94 does (I do not know when this functionality became available) I doubt that this is related, but it can't hurt to try! If it does not fix it, my guess would be a faulty contact on the switch.

My 96 windows do that reprogramming thingy. Have not had a problem (knocking on wood) with the serious sun roof yet, so am glad to hear about the programming thing.

thanks for the ideas, and they all fit in my budget. Mark M.
