sunroof, wont close...

I have scoured old posts and no problems seem to mimick mine. My roof quietly and smoothly opens, just perfect. However, that's all it does. It doesn't close, or tilt or anything else. I've tried different switches. It very nicely closes with the manual crank. There are no sounds, clicks, pops or anything when pushing the button to close it. Im thinking relay....you?

Possibly relay, also check the wiring to the motor itself.

Got it!

Changed the relay and it works like new now!!!!
The relay is a small rectangle box attached on the left side of the motor itself. It hangs upside down and has 2 thin prongs holding it down.
