Sunroof problem..

On my 89 ST, my sunroof doesn't want to work right. It will open fine, but when you try and close it, it wont close right. It will work normally until about half way and then the right side will close faster making it crooked until it stops. Also when you try and tilt it, only one side goes up.

Anyone got any ideas on how to fix this?

Also, there is no documentation in the Haynes manuel about the sunroof, so any help is appreciated. Thanks.

There is a guide into checking that...but i'm too lazy to help you find it...

Its under the 5th gen forms (use the search function) at www.celica.net

There are tones of topic there...The easiest/cheapest way...people said was the use of a dremel with a screw driver attachment..and doing it MANUALLY!
