My sunroof started acting up and I'm stuck with it off my car. It was opening automatically. If I hit the close button it closed part way and stopped. As soon as I let off the button it opened back up. After taking off the top I got it to close all the way, but then it wouldn't move at all.

I started taking it apart. I took out all the components near the actual sunroof. No problems. I followed the spring tube thing back and fiddled with that a little bit. It was a bit misalligned so I fixed that. Now it only goes goes in the close direction. I was stupid and kept hitting close until the spring popped out. I assume I can put it back in, but I don't know what is causing it to go one way. It's not the switch, I tested that. Do I need to replace the motor? Any help would be appreciated.

Also, when i do get it running right again is there a way to align the sunroof bars? When I would close it too far they would pull out of the sun roof and the back side would float free.


Also-I swapped the relays mounted on the bar behind the motor. With the one farther back removed the sunroof would not retract at all (nothing moved), but with them switched it still moved backwards only IE: no change from before the switch.
