Unhappy Stuck sunroof

Does anyone know how I can close my sunroof manually? I have a gs300 2005 and the sunroof is stuck open, it just happened randomly, the motor works i think as the roof comes out a little bit and then gets jammed , tried to look if something was Jammed but couldn't really find anything, any ideas?

When mine started sticking I sprayed some white lithium grease on the tracks and kept going back and forth until the roof moved smoothly.

You can put your key in the door and turn it to the lock (left) position and hold. That should close it. FYI, I had to replace my sunroof switch last summer, my sunroof would open would not close. I knew the motor was good because it would close with the key. I bought a new switch off eBay for $25.
