Hi,

Basically, both sunroofs don't work. They are the electric type as I have an ES model. The courtesy light doesn't work and my radio doesn't work. I have checked all fuses and they are all fine. To me it feels like all are linked as they are in the center part of the car. I've checked all the cables are connected (to which they are) and still nothing. Any ideas?

Yesterday as I noticed some water was building up on the sunroof glasses so I opened the front one up with an allen key and half way through, the hex shape decided it wanted to be a circle so I can't close the front sunroof back up. Any ideas on how to close it? I have the car under a giant sheet of plastic at the moment as I don't want water getting in! Trying to sort one problem turned into about 5 lol. Joys of Land Rovers!!

Any help greatly appreciated!

Tom, it's about this time, we go inside, have a cuppa ring round see if anybody's got a lock up for a week or two. And pray.
Regarding the stripped hex key I always use a torx type bit roughly the same size put it in an socket extension bar ect and tap it into the hex bolt. It's got more sides so will grip it, while tapping it also loosens it, it'll come out, just be careful
 
Luckily I have it stored on a gated drive plus it's got no wheels fitted whilst I sort the brakes so it isn't going anywhere!

Yeah I tried that yesterday with no luck. Pretty much had to hammer it in there but didn't do much even with a ratchet
 
Check for corrosion in header C0018 in that area, it's the one with only black wires in it
