1. Check the Manual

• Refer to your 2018 Nissan Rogue’s owner’s manual. It often provides troubleshooting steps for basic issues and can help you understand how the sunroof operates and what might be going wrong.

2. Inspect the Fuse

• Locate the fuse box, which is typically found under the dashboard or in the engine compartment. Check the manual for the exact location.
• Find the fuse associated with the moonroof and inspect it for any signs of damage or a blown fuse.
