as it closes, use your finger to "help" it close (from the rear) push up. There might be a pebble or something on the track messing with the sensor. Could also be the switch going bad.

I have that problem every now and then, I just use my finger to help close it and doesnt happen any more. I also have a short in my switch that doesnt let me use it much. I'd have to play with it a bit to get it to work... Different issue, probably not relevant to the moon roof craziness.

I lubed the tracks on mine and it stopped. I don't open it very often though so I don't know if it's gonna keep working.
