Default Sunroof wont close properly!

Had the sunroof open today and when I tried to shut it it would not shut at all! Not it is near enough shut but not sealed shut and the handl just turns and clicks when I try and do it!

Anybody got any ideas?

Sounds like you might have snaped the cable inside.

Strip it all out, clean it up, re grease it and put it back again. Haven't opened my sunroof since the roll cage went in. Need to have a look how to solve that little one at some point

it only take's about half an hour to take it out and it won't damage your roof then when you've got it out you can have a good look at it.
