Press and hold the tilt closed button for 5-10 seconds. It resets the sunroof and it should slide again.

Bad motor circuit! It's more than a motor! It's a circuit board with a program as well.

Mine is possessed. I'll walk out and it will be randomly open. Just gotta jack with it til it eventually closes again. Only once in a blue moon. I don't have time to deal with it.

Yeah, Try this first. The instructions are in the manual as well.
Any time the battery is disconnected or drained while the roof is open it has to be reset. Just hold the tilt button till it moves. It'll tilt and stop. keep letting it up and pressing it and it will open a few inches each time till it's fully open. It should work after that if that's the problem.
