Default panoramic sunroof stuck in tilt open position

hi all,
i wanted to open my sunroof today, but it wouldn't open. i could tilt it up/down, but not open. no motor sounded, as if there was no juice. so i forgot about it and went to work on other stuff.
However, my problem got worst as i couldn't close the tilt either. so for now my sunroof is stuck open in tilt position. i've tried the initialization, but I can't get past the first of two step process. On the first step it tilts up/down and when i go to step two nothing happens.
i've tried taking out the two fuses related to the sunroof waited a minute and reinserted them and retried the initialization. but that didn't help either.
I have a warning on the dash regarding the pinch protection is off on the sunroof.
is there a way to manually close the sunroof? and retry initialization?
any other things i should be looking into?

I believe that you can wind it shut manually. There's a screw under the panel behind the sunroof button (I believe). It requires an Allen key.
