[s-cars] Help! Sunroof issues

[Wylie Bean]

That might work unless the problem child is a '92. I think he's OK though.

Scott,

Another thing you do as an emergency cure is to lock the car 
and hold the key over until the sunroof closes.  Then open the car 
and drive away.

Scott,

I've had this problem before, I believe it caused by a dirty switch
sending the wrong signal causing the car to believe it's in the
wrong position. For me if I turn the switch just off the closed
position
the sunroof will close.

My fix has been to quickly turn the sunroof switch back and forth
repeatedly, which I believe cleans the contacts some, then return the
switch to the closed position.

To fix it you need to either replace or clean the switch.
