Default Early year sunroof problem. 1984 944

On the pre 85.5 Porsche 944's the power sunroof locking position is operated with the key in the ignition in the off position. In this mode the you can operate the hooks to lock the sunroor or release the sunroof.

My car sunroof motor or hooks do nothing in this mode.

The sunroof will raise and lower when the key is in the "On" position.

What switches might be causing the problem?

What might be causing this problem?

Any help would help.

I have a 1985/2 with the same problem. I think it might be the key section of the ignition. I already replaced the electrical portion but nothing happened

Check the Main Sunroof Relay, the Console Switch and Limit switch 1.
