Default How to get the electric sunroof to work again?

I have a 95 E320. Today when driving there was a loud squealing noise from the electric radio antenna. I followed the book and lubricated it. Now no noise.
However, now the electric sunroof has quit working. No power. I have closed the sunroof manually.
I am thinking when I was fixing the electric radio antenna - which is located on the side of the trunk - left hand side: I did something to the sunroof motor.
Any suggestions or advice on fixing this would be appreciated.

Are you sure the sound was from the radio antenna? Maybe it was the sunroof motor or cables? Were you operating it at the time of the noise? As you stated, both motors are in the same area in the trunk.

Thank you for your quick reply. The sound was from the radio antenna for sure. The radio antenna was going up and down like crazy. Lubricated it and it works.
However, I did NOT know what the wiring was next to it. I discovered it was the motor for the sunroof. Have working in that area of the trunk - perhaps I did something to it.
I did notice a plastic **** by the sunroof motor (that is located in the trunk) - I am not sure what that plastic **** is for.
I did hand crank the sunroof close.
When I press the button to open or close the sunroom - I hear a click - but nothing else.
Is there a particular fuse for the sunroof.
Thank you again.

Maybe the Fuse blowed up or some oil feel on it.

Try to look for the fuse or clean the place where the fuse is supose to be.
