For some reason, my sunroof wont' close. When I pressed the latch switch to close the sunroof, it will go through the process of closing then it pop up (tilt) then come back down and stay open about 1/4 size. I don't why it won't stay stay close.

press the button to tilt up and keep holding it till it does the whole process. The sunroof will start to open and close. It will do an entire opening then close fully. When it is fully closed, you can remove your finger from the button. That way you would have done a reset to the sunroof and will work properly.
