Yeah, is the motor locked up or is the glass stuck on something?

Sunroof wont let me close it. The motor is,still working and the sunroof is,moving about n 1/8th an inch back n ward. But it seems to me that there is something on the track/ or its off track or needs to be regreased. Its making a click click sound when its "on" but the roof is,going about 1/8in forwards n backwards...

Cant slide it past the point where its clicking. And I.cant see in side to see if its stuck on something

 

[Carter]

How much do you care about it? I'd force it...

 

[STI KID]

Tried..didnt work..care to much to keep tryin toforce it n break it. Its my dd and its supposed to rain all week. So can someone point me in the direction of a sunroof repair shop/somewhere that is capable of fixing it .

 

[STI KID]

Not a single person can.point me in a direction of someone who can fix it/atleast look at it.

[drvsdwz]

find someone who can weld and take some sheet metal and weld it over the opening, problem solved.

When mine got stuck open it was the same thing, it started jamming up about 1/8". I forced it, and it closed. Still wouldn't seal properly though.

Upon it's autopsy I discovered that the cable had stripped out where the sunroof grabs onto it. This messed up the alignment of everything and caused it to jam.

It's a pain in the rear to get the sunroof out, I discovered. It would be a lot easier on a wagon to just slide it out the gate, but getting the headliner and sunroof assy out of the back door of a sedan sucks.

It's not a very hard job though, attention to detail, and you'll be able to get a new one in there.
