Unrelated to a Recall

So I took my 128 in for the PCV heater and blower motor wiring recalls to be completed. I know that those 2 recalls are COMPLETELY unrelated to the sunroof. However, my sunroof is inoperable.

No fuses popped, checked the 3 fuses. Tried the reset procedure, by holding the tilt button, even tried using the fob. If I press and hold unlock my windows roll down, and lock does the opposite. Nothing will get it to work again.

Any ideas? Worked fine without issue or leaks prior to the recalls, now it won't even so much as tilt or act like its got power.

Get a proper code reader and see if you can recover a code that might point you to what specifically has failed.

You might also try disconnecting your battery for a while to reset the car. Is your battery in good condition? I know that a battery on the way out can cause electrical issues in our cars.

Not seeing any codes beyond A670 for the condensation sensor. My car also complains about the BST but beyond that is code free. Both those codes were present when it was functional so I don't see either of them being the issue either.

I tried resetting it via protool, recoded the module and no luck as well. I've haven't tried looking at the switch area because I don't know how to remove it without breaking it I feel so I held off.

Battery is relatively new, I'll give removing the cable a shot to see if it helps as well. I'm actually not feeling well today so I might just go yank the battery cable and let it sit most of the day without it.
