Hello and welcome to the NICO forum

Heres the part number for the sunshade assy.....

97580-3H100-

However, in the list for the motor and gear, it lists REFER TO TSB

and it gives this part number for the sunshade: 97581-3H000-

What I would do is call Joe up, and tell him you have a 1999 Q45 and tell him you want the rear sunshade motor... Tell him your from NICO and you know Wes and all that fun stuff... When your on the phone with him, tell him to go to section 799 (he'll know what I'm talking about) and scroll to the very end.....

the rear sunshade is the last diagram in section 799.....

Be sure it is not jammed first.

The price of the shade assembly is not inexpensive.

how do I checke to see if it is getting power.

I'm having the same problem with my '99 Q. How did you fix yours? Was it the motor?

[xmateo]

How do you tell if it is jammed or not? Is there a possibility it is catching on something that is not allowing it to extend?

Check the extension scissors. They can get bent.

I'm a little afraid to pull on it - it seems to be firmly in there. Am I going to do any damage to the motor if I force the top of the shade out?

Remove the whole unit to check the operation of it.

Remove the whole unit to check the operation of it.

Suggestions for removal? I don't have the slightest idea where to start.

Look at BT-29 and BT-31 in the FSM.
