I don't know if this is the same probem you have or not. Mine was open about 1/4 and it would not close or open anymore. I did hear the motor click as it seemed like it was trying to. What I found was the roof had somehow gotten slightly crooked in the opening and was bound up. I got mad and used a crow bar(not smart) to "help" the motor close it. It worked and I have not had any problem since. Like I said though, I don't know if that is your problem or not.

Thanks for the reply I will look at that if I can. Mine is all the way back and the manual cover inside is out of sight.
Like I said that might not be your problem but who knows. I would "gently" try to help it close while someone pushes the button for you. Then again maybe someone has had this problem and can chime in...
