Default 2004 Intimidater Sunroof problem

My sunroof will open fine , but when I go to close it I hold the button but the roof stops and I have to let go of the button and push it again. I have to do this like 10 times before it is all the way closed.Any suggestions.Thanks

clean the contacts on the switch or replace it altogether.

Have a friend close it while you watch from above. If it usually or always stops at the same point, you may well have a loose, misaligned track.

Adjust.

I agree with desertstars and vincenti check the contacts on the switch. and check to see if the sun roof track is misaligned also see if the track is greased.

Mine stopped alot, almost seemed like it was out of power. Put a bunch of some white grease on it I picked up and it closes way easier.

Mine did that a few times when I left it open over night and it was cold out.

Mine does that... oh wait. I don't have one

Hopefully some of the posts of other members have helped you? Did you get it working good?
