There is a ground by the rear windshield on the roof above the headliner and a ground above the controls/map lights. Check that they are secure/tight.

The motor is probably not the problem. Replace the computer next. It's bolted to the track.

I have fixed two of these so far by taking the relay board out of the blue box and resoldering all the connections.

The wagon and sedan sun roof assemblies are 98% the same. the difference is 1 mounting point on each side.

To answer your question, the blue box is at the rear of the sun roof assembly.
