If you would like your sunroof to work all the time (with or without the key), there is a pretty simple modification that can be done..
1. Remove the 7.5 amp sunroof fuse (located in passenger side kick panel)
There is a 20 amp and a 7.5 amp fuse labeled as "Sunroof Only remove the 7.5 amp fuse.
2. Pull down the sunroof switch assembly
3. Strip a small amount of insulation from the Orange/Black wire and the Pink/Black wire
4. That's it, put the sunroof switch assembly back in place, and enjoy opening and closing your sunroof on nice sunny days without having to first put your key in the ignition.
Note: If you leave the 7.5 amp fuse for the sunroof in the fuse box, this modification will turn on just about everything that the ignition turns on. Make sure you keep the 7.5 amp sunroof fuse removed as long as you have this modification in place.
*Correction - In one of the graphics, I mentioned that the pink/black wire was originally connected to the ACC side of the ignition switch. It is actually connected to the IGN1 side... - just a minor detail
