The sunroof circuit is protectrd by a circuit breaker, but it's the same circuit breaker that protects the power windows, so if they work, that's not your problem. If the problem is a bad switch, it's not too bad a job, but you stated that you thought you could hear the motor responding when you pressed the switch, so if that's the case, either the glass is jammed or there's something wrong with the motor mechanism.
Pulling the sunroof out is a big job that requires removal of the headliner.
If you are inclined to tackle it, get a shop manual for the car (not a Haynes) as there are some procedures that must be followed so as not to ruin the thing.

thanks Dcotter

I discover today that it wasnt the sound of the roof engine but the electric antena mast that is puping out when I start the car so it's posible that it's simply the switch!!

it's a good news I am sure that pulling out the sunrrof is a big job and I dont want to try ,I will try the switch first and keep you informed of this work

thank's again
