Maybe its just stuck.<p>Mine gets stuck all the time, I just push it a tiny bit at the end of it where it is supposed to pop up and then it will usually go.

BTW, if you keep running it when it's stuck, you will burn out the motor. So make sure if you can hear the motor trying to run, then make sure something is actually moving. LOL

I always used to do this when i had my car, and that is why i always say poke anything that is not working. :D
What i did to stop this stupid thing was, I took out the whole sunroof one day(takes only 20 mins if you read the online shop manual), took it all apart, cleaned all the rails and everything (damn it was dirty) and applied a good amount of grease where needed, and installed it back in the car.
I also did the exact same thing on my power window system, and it worked 1000X better afterwards.

If you grease the back part (I think it's the rubber sealing) then it shouldn't get stuck as much.<p>That helped mine some.<p>~A
