    Power sunroof on 1999 Plymouth Neon
    My power sunroof on my 1999 Ply Neon is stuck after opening only about 2-3 inches . It will not move either direction. What do I have to do to get it working or just getting it shut so I can drive the car.

    Power sun roofs can get out alignment with one side open just a tad more than the other side. So small that you don't even notice the difference. Get a friend to help you. Whoever is the strongest should push forward on the roof from inside the car. Make a fist and stick a thumb near each corner of the roof. You push the close button while the friend pushes. This may get the roof closed but it most likely has not fixed the problem.

    Thanks for your help. After tearing it apart I found that the cord that closes it was broken. I was able to manually force it closed then mount the window back on the track. I can't use it but at least I can drive the car now. I will see if I can figure out how to replace it after the weather warms up. It's below 10 degrees now. Too cold to be working in an unheated garage. I might need more help later trying to figure out how to replace it.
