I have the Vauxhall Meriva with the two sunroofs. Front one has stopped working, back one okay. Checked fuses, but they are okay! Anyone, got any ideas?

Thanks for your reply very much appreciated.
Not sure how you actually test the switch? The back sunroof works from the switch. I suppose the only way of being sure is to buy a new one? and if not it would point to the motor?
 
Testing a switch or a motor wrongly could have irreversible effects, I'm guessing.

There must be a local mechanic/electrician, who fit car alarms? All they need to do is locate the positive and negative wires on either the motor or switch, and test them using a multi meter, or power supply.

Be careful not to buy a used motor or a switch, even refurbished ones woudl be dubious in the long run.

By all means check any switches that you can, but nowadays vehicles have 'body control modules' that operate windows / sunroofs and so on.
There are also limit switches that govern the roof movement.
All I'm saying is, don't bash on replacing various items but rather consider a professional diagnostic check.....one of the tips is to disconnect the battery for 1/2 hour - but you'll need the radio code for this.
