Using the driver door lock, turn to lock the doors and hold - maybe the central control is out of synch.
Until you find the problem, you can do the emergency close - using your tool kit's hex key, go to the control panel. Pry off the cover (from the rearmost center). Insert the key into the motor and turn COUNTERCLOCKWISE to close it.
Do this only if there is no real resistance - or if the guides are not jammed. Check fuse #30 (same as locking) and fuses 17,31, and 47.
Good luck!



I parked my car and locked it with the Sunroof in the raised position. When I got back in, I held the close button while I started the car. When the car started the roof jammed in the raised position and I can't get it to close. I've already checked the fuses. The funny thing is that there isn't a fuse that is labeled as controlling the sunroof. Please help.
