1995 Buick Regal Sunroof Stuck Open!!

[Sophyra]

So I have a 1995 Buick Regal GS. I had a hunch the motor for the sunroof was going, but for some reason I thought it was a good idea to open the sunroof today. *sigh*

It opens just fine, but closing it is the problem and now it's stuck all the way open.

I know there's not panel that opens up to manually crank it closed (easily anyways). What's the easiest way to manually close it?

Amateur here, so If I have to remove the headliner and unscrew some stuff, can you post a detailed explanation on how to do that? I've scoured the internet and haven't found any answers to this - well any that I understand.

PLEASE HELP!! - It's supposed to T-storm tomorrow. T_T

The same motor that opens it, closes it, so odds are it's a module or switch issue. If you can get to the motor connector (in the front by windshield) just jumper the two leads to power and ground (unplug from module first). One polarity will open and one will close so just flip the wires if it doesn't close.
It's been many years since I had one of those vehicles but I believe the module could fail if you get into a low battery condition. I seem to recall repairing my module because nobody had them anymore. You might just want to leave yours unplugged once you get it closed.

92sub-

You seem to know a lot about cars. A friend of mine is a big Mopar fan and has had some awesome rides over the years. Recently he and his wife opened Rob's Rod Shop to "do what they love". Have you considered opening a shop?

If you called it a Sub Shop you'd be misleading folks looking for a hoagie. Maybe just charge $92/hour?
