Moonroof stuck open.

Hi everyone.

Traveling and out of town. My moon roof is open and now won't close. Does anyone know a workaround or a way to troubleshoot?

Thank you. I tried this and unfortunately did not work.

If you can't initialize it, you may need to visit a dealer to get it fixed.

At least to close it manually, I believe you can pop off the cover (where the switch is) and there is a torx screw you can use to manually close it.

^^ This. Is it open, or just tilted? Check your OMM, I believe it walks you through this.

Thanks all. It's at the dealer now. They first said it needed a complete new assembly as my vehicle had a certain production number. I guess it's a fairly common problem. They just called back said assembly is fine and it needs to be programmed. BMW corporate was also involved. Vehicle is a 2015 35i.

Mine had a bit of glitch once where I went to close it and it wouldn't respond. I cycled the ignition and voila it worked again. Never had a problem since.
