What to do if the sunroof of Roewe RX3 cannot be closed?

There are scratches on the sunroof due to friction. First, roughly test the distance between the scratched area of the sunroof and the screws. Use a utility knife to cut the table foot pads or silicone, and repeatedly test while cutting until the thickness is appropriate. Use glue to attach the table foot pads or silicone to the scratched area of the sunroof. Use 4204 glue or 496 super instant adhesive.
Last time my sunroof got stuck, I fixed it myself. First, check if there are any leaves or small stones stuck in the tracks and remove them with tweezers. Then try the power reset method: disconnect the negative terminal of the battery for five minutes to reset the sunroof. If it won't close, it might be due to the anti-pinch function being too sensitive or debris in the tracks causing resistance—just spray some track lubricant. If the rubber seal is aging and causing sticking, applying some rubber protectant can make it smoother. If none of these work, you'll likely need to replace the sunroof motor—a friend of mine spent over 800 yuan fixing theirs. Remember to close the sunshade during rain to prevent water from damaging the motor.
Having repaired cars for over a decade, sunroof issues generally fall into three categories. Mechanical jamming is the most common—check if the guide rails are deformed, and tighten any loose screws with a hex key. For electrical system failures, listen for sounds: if there's no motor sound when pressing the switch, it might be a blown fuse—try replacing the 15A mini fuse labeled F16 in the fuse box behind the glove compartment. If the motor hums but won't close, it's likely due to stripped gears in the motor. Electronic faults require a visit to the dealership to scan for error codes; a faulty control module needs a full replacement. Key reminder: Don't force it! Replacing shattered glass with OEM parts costs over 2,000 yuan.
