W124 Passenger window switch opens sunroof!

[scottan]

Must have a short somewhere because the passenger window switch closes the passenger window and opend the sunroof at the same time!!! Not good when its raining!.
Where to look...behind the dash?

Thanks

Might be an earth problem somewhere. Taking a look inside the Convenience Control unit, it might yield some clues as to what’s wrong.

If you open up the unit you will find 8 relays, 4 to raise each window and 4 to lower each window, you could manually close the points on a relay with your finger, depending which relay you operate, the window will either close or open.

Not sure if this unit has any connection with the sunroof or if there is a relay somewhere else for the sunroof.

Operating the cabin window switches will click each relay and will identify which relay belongs to which window.

There's a relay on the back/underside of the sunroof motor, my random guess would also be to start with the convenience module under the back seat as comfort opening/closing via the key or fob opens/shuts the roof as well as the windows. Off the top of my head that's the only common link between windows and roof?
