Mokka Sun Blind Failure

Hi, I'm having trouble with the sun blind on my 2020 Vauxhall Mokka diesel. It's completely stuck, won't retract or extend. I've got an error code pointing to the motor. Mileage is 87917 km. Anyone else had this? Trying to brace myself for repair costs.

I had a similar issue on my 2016 Renault Kadjar. Same symptoms – sun blind completely jammed. The error code pointed to the motor as well. Have you checked the fuse box? It might be a simple blown fuse, though with the error code, it's probably the motor itself. I hope it is 'only' the motor like in my case.

Thanks! Do you remember the specific error code you got with your Kadjar? And was it definitely just the motor, or were other things involved?

The error code was specific to the sun blind motor, unfortunately I don't remember the exact code. It was pretty clear that the motor was the culprit. I tried to get to the motor myself, but access was very difficult. Eventually, I gave up and took it to a workshop. They confirmed the motor failure. My advice would be to do the same.

Thanks for the help! The workshop confirmed it's the motor and needs replacing. The estimate is about 330€, including labor and parts. You were spot on!
