Sorry to dredge up this really ancient thread, but: after a while, my '01 PF started having the same problem again. This persisted for about a year, and I tried several things: disconnecting the battery, pulling a couple of different fuses, etc. It was not partuclarly a big deal because I almost never run the sun roof fully open open, just tipped up in back to increase the airflow in sunny California. This past weekend for other reasons, I had the battery out overnight. This morning I noticed that the sunroof was working correctly again. I think it takes a long powerdown to get the sunroof computer to reboot. I've surely lost my radio presets (yawn) and I'm amazed the the keyless remotes still work (HUZZAH Nissan).
