Elantra sun blind malfunction

The sun blind in my 2003 Hyundai Elantra (gasoline engine) is acting up. It's only done 38182 km. Recently, the sunblind has stopped retracting and extending properly. It just gets stuck, and the error memory shows a fault. I suspect the motor is defective. Has anyone else experienced this?

The sun blind in a 2003 Hyundai Elantra is malfunctioning, failing to retract and extend properly, and showing an error in the memory. The suspected cause is a defective motor, as the sun blind is silent and not jammed. The suggested solution is to take it to a workshop for repair, which confirmed the motor issue and resolved it.

Ugh, that sucks! Electrical gremlins are the worst. Is it making any noise when you try to use it? Maybe it's just jammed somehow?

Thanks for the reply! No, it's not making any noise at all. I've tried to see if something is blocking it, but there is nothing obvious. Could it still be jammed even if it is not making any sounds?

Hmm, if it's totally silent and throwing an error, yeah, sounds like the motor is probably toast. I'd bite the bullet and take it to a workshop. Seems like a pain to DIY.

Alright, I appreciate the input. I took it to the shop, and you were right, the motor was defective. Repair ended up costing 330€ Thanks again!
