Hey guys when I press the open or tilt button on my 2000 LC sunroof I hear the motor for 0.3 seconds and then nothing…no movement… is this a common problem ?
 
yes , its common. what probably happening is the cables are frozen with rust / debris . I rebuilt mine, and the parts are still available, well at least they were a year ago. Its a very labor intensive job because the headliner and sunroof assembly have to come down , but its not overly difficult.

Could be the seal sticking. Could be the cables. I recently replaced mine because the cables were worn out. Its a bear of a job, but doable.

My cables were not nearly that bad and yes, the parts were available a month ago.

Mine stuck open, so unless you are ready to do the work, I would stop pushing that button.
