Noah sun blind motor failure

I'm experiencing an issue with my 2021 Toyota Noah hybrid. The sun blind is defective; it's stuck and won't retract or extend. There's also an error stored. Could this be a motor issue?

Hey there! I've got a Noah too, and your description sounds awfully familiar. If it's the same issue I had, then yeah, it's likely the sun blind motor. Is it making any noise when you try to operate it, or is it completely dead?

Thank you for the quick response! When I try to operate the sun blind, it makes a faint whirring sound, but there is no movement whatsoever. Does this align with what you experienced?

Yep, the faint whirring is exactly what happened with mine. It's a telltale sign the motor is kaput. Given the error code and the symptoms, it's pretty much a lock. I'd advise getting it checked at a workshop; better safe than sorry and you will need the error memory cleared afterwards.

I appreciate the confirmation and advice. I will schedule an appointment with a qualified workshop immediately to have the sun blind motor inspected and replaced. Your input has been invaluable! The repair cost me 330€ including the new part and installation.
