I have an '89 Accord. Can someone please tell me where the motor is located for the sunroof? Also if there is a fuse involved & where it is located. I've looked in the roof & it's not there.

The motor has to be in the roof and there are fuses. Check out the owner manual. The fuse could be under the hood.

Thanks. I don't have an owner's manual, only a Hanes & it doesn't really tell you much. I'll look in the roof again, but the only thing I've seen up there are the guides. I've also checked the fuse box under the driver's side & there's nothing there for the sunroof. I'll check under the hood. Thanks again.

there is a place on the roof where you insert a tool to close the sunroof and I believe that is the motor being turned by the wrench. There is a popout plug covering the hole for the wrench.

WOW. You are absolutely correct. It looks like an allenwrench would work. Now, I just need to find the fuse. Thanks a million! If it's broken it sure doesn't look easy to get outta there.
