Default front sunroof stopped working

hmmmm....after fixing 2 sunroofs on 2 friends cars while staying in PA, mine decided to also stop working....is this a PA thing?

but more seriously i would like to address the problem. When i press the button i can hear a kind of relay clicking sound from behind the sunroof button.
I swapped the harness connectors around to see if the button was the problem, and the front roof button worked for the rear sunroof, and the rear button did not open the front sunroof, so i assume the button is not the problem...any ideas what to try next?

I have the same issue. I was about to just buy a new motor, but if I don’t have to, that would be awesome.

Default Sunroof ECU

Mine was making the clicking noise for quite some time, sunroof's didn't work sicne purchase, but then driving down the road one day the front one randomly opened up?! Next day it was back to being broken. I manually closed it and unplugged the power to the sunroof ECU as it was clearly getting power and therefore making that clicking noise.

But in other news, I don't care if you have issues, you hate Land Rovers so I'd rather buy yours at a discount because they suck so bad.

Not me! I love my Land Rover! I do wish my front sunroof worked, though.
You think changing out the sunroof ECU will fix 'er?

Try and see if you can swap out your Land Rover sunroof for a Jaguar x-type sunroof. They are bulletproof and require not cleaning or greasing. Hell, maybe a friend will even loan you the money for the project.
