Moon roof won't open

[myfirstbonnie]

Yesterday I was driving around with the roof open and when I got home I closed it to wash the car. Later I went to open it and all I heard was the motor running. If I hit the button in the other direction it would stop and then it would do the pop up and down like it normally does when closing. It also works fine in the vent position. It just won't open. Any ideas where to start?

Remove the glass and you will be able to see what is binding, just 4 torx bolts....

Did that and can see there are two little tabs that attach to the mechanism that have broken. I am not going to tear it out until I get the parts I need. Can those be replaced or do I need the whole frame?

If you find out where to get the parts, let me know. My wife's did the same thing and has been broken for about two years.

I checked out the moonroof in my parts car today. Its perfect, even has the wind deflector still working. I'll let you know when I get it out.
