Earlier yesterday I tried closing the sunroof on my 1991 Cadillac Brougham and the button didn't operate. The Open and Tilt buttons work but the Stop and ASC button stopped working.  Any ideas???? 
Thanks in advance!

Are you a smoker?        My sister had a 1988 with a similar problem, her husband was a smoker. Tar from cigarette smoke migrates up to that area.   Cleaned switch with Q-tip and some rubbing alcohol, worked fine.  Q-tip was dark orange, showed what smoking can do.  They immediately stopped smoking.       Tim Pawl CLC#4383

Add a bit of tension to the fingers in the switch while you're in there. They tend to loose tension and can render the switch inoperative.
